Paste YAML, get JSON. Then format, validate, or diff in the same workspace.
Going from YAML to JSON is needed surprisingly often — JavaScript tools, JSON Schema validators, and most APIs prefer JSON, while humans prefer YAML for editing. This converter parses YAML 1.2 (anchors, aliases, block scalars, all of it) and emits clean, optionally pretty-printed JSON. Once you're in JSON-land, you can hop straight to the JSON Toolkit to validate, minify, diff, or generate types. Common uses: extracting a snippet from a Kubernetes manifest, converting a docker-compose service to JSON for an API call, or normalizing two configs to JSON so you can semantically diff them.
