FracturedJson

FracturedJson is a family of utilities that format JSON data in a way that's easy for humans to read, but fairly compact. Arrays and objects are written on single lines, as long as they're neither too long nor too complex. When several such lines are similar in structure, they're written with fields aligned like a table. Long arrays are written with multiple items per line across multiple lines.

It is available as a browser page, a .NET Standard 2.0 library, a Javascript package, and a Visual Studio Code extension.

Here's a sample of output using default settings:

{
    "SimpleArray": [
          2,   3,   5,   7,  11,  13,  17,  19,  23,  29,  31,  37,  41,  43,  47,  53,  59,  61,
         67,  71,  73,  79,  83,  89,  97, 101, 103, 107, 109, 113
    ],
    "ObjectColumnsArrayRows": {
        "Katherine": ["blue"      , "lightblue", "black"       ],
        "Logan"    : ["yellow"    , "blue"     , "black", "red"],
        "Erik"     : ["red"       , "purple"                   ],
        "Jean"     : ["lightgreen", "yellow"   , "black"       ]
    },
    "ArrayColumnsObjectRows": [
        { "type": "turret"   , "hp": 400, "loc": {"x": 47, "y":  -4}, "flags": "S"   },
        { "type": "assassin" , "hp":  80, "loc": {"x": 12, "y":   6}, "flags": "Q"   },
        { "type": "berserker", "hp": 150, "loc": {"x":  0, "y":   0}                 },
        { "type": "pittrap"  ,            "loc": {"x": 10, "y": -14}, "flags": "S,I" }
    ],
    "ComplexArray": [
        [19,  2],
        [ 3,  8],
        [14,  0],
        [ 9,  9],
        [ 9,  9],
        [ 0,  3],
        [10,  1],
        [ 9,  1],
        [ 9,  2],
        [ 6, 13],
        [18,  5],
        [ 4, 11],
        [12,  2]
    ]
}

If enabled in the settings, it can also handle JSON-with-comments (which isn't real JSON).

{
    /*
     * Multi-line comments
     * are fun!
     */
    "NumbersWithHex": [
          254 /*00FE*/,  1450 /*5AA*/ ,     0 /*0000*/, 36000 /*8CA0*/,    10 /*000A*/,
          199 /*00C7*/, 15001 /*3A99*/,  6540 /*198C*/
    ],
    /* Elements are keen */
    "Elements": [
        { /*Carbon*/   "Symbol": "C" , "Number":  6, "Isotopes": [11, 12, 13, 14] },
        { /*Oxygen*/   "Symbol": "O" , "Number":  8, "Isotopes": [16, 18, 17    ] },
        { /*Hydrogen*/ "Symbol": "H" , "Number":  1, "Isotopes": [ 1,  2,  3    ] },
        { /*Iron*/     "Symbol": "Fe", "Number": 26, "Isotopes": [56, 54, 57, 58] }
        // Not a complete list...
    ],

    "Beatles Songs": [
        "Taxman"        ,  // George
        "Hey Jude"      ,  // Paul
        "Act Naturally" ,  // Ringo
        "Ticket To Ride"   // John
    ]
}
