Settings ​

Open the settings view using the settings tab in the header (route /settings). Settings are stored locally in your browser; json-tool never sends your data to a server.

The font size input controls the size of the text in the editors (12px by default).

The indentation (the number of spaces used when formatting) is changed from the right toolbar in the editor, not in the settings.

OptionDescription
JSON HistoryWhen enabled (default), json-tool keeps a history of the JSON you have used and shows the history button in the header. The drawer lets you send an entry back to the editor or copy it.

Feature changes are applied immediately, without requiring Save.
