Frequently Asked Questions

What YAML features are supported?

All standard YAML features including nested objects, arrays, multi-line strings, anchors, aliases, and flow/block styles.

How does YAML differ from JSON?

YAML uses indentation instead of braces, supports comments, and is more human-readable. JSON is stricter but more widely supported by APIs.

Will comments in YAML be preserved?

No. JSON does not support comments, so they are removed during conversion. The data itself is fully preserved.
