Does minifying change my data?

No, only whitespace is removed — the data structure and values stay identical.

Can I download the minified result?

Yes, use the Download button to save it as a .json file.

How much size reduction can I expect?

It depends on formatting, but heavily indented JSON can shrink by 20-40%.

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.
