How OpenFormatter Works
Every tool on this site runs entirely inside your browser tab. When you paste JSON, XML, or YAML into an editor, the parsing and formatting logic executes as JavaScript on your own machine — nothing is uploaded to a server, logged, or stored. That's not a privacy policy promise; it's a structural fact of how the site is built: there's no API endpoint for your input to be sent to in the first place.
That local-first design is what makes it safe to paste sensitive input — API keys, database dumps, internal config files — into a tool like this. It also means results are instant: no network round-trip, no server-side upload limit, no queue. OpenFormatter currently covers 200+ tools across JSON, XML, YAML, CSV, HTML, and CSS: formatters, validators, converters, and encoders built around the same workflow — paste, fix, copy, move on.
