What fields are required?

"name" and "version" are required by npm; description, license, repository and author are recommended.

Does it check dependency ranges?

Yes, it flags dependency version ranges that don't look like valid semver or git/URL specifiers.

Is my package.json sent anywhere?

No, validation happens entirely in your browser.

Is my data uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using standard web APIs, so your input never leaves your device and nothing is logged or stored on our servers.

Does it work offline and on mobile?

Yes. Once the page has loaded it keeps working without a network connection, and the layout is responsive so it stays usable on phones and tablets.
