TOML to JSON Converter

About TOML (Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language)

TOML is a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table and should be easy to parse into data structures in various languages.

Created by Tom Preston-Werner (co-founder of GitHub), TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read and write. It's used by many popular tools including Rust's Cargo, Python's Poetry, Hugo static site generator, and more. TOML supports comments, nested tables, and various data types.

title = "TOML Example"

[owner]
name = "Tom Preston-Werner"
organization = "GitHub"

[database]
server = "192.168.1.1"
ports = [ 8001, 8001, 8002 ]
connection_max = 5000
enabled = true

About JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)

JSON is a lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. Despite its name suggesting a connection to JavaScript, JSON is language-independent and is used across many programming languages.

JSON is the de facto standard for web APIs and data exchange. It's built on two structures: objects (key-value pairs) and arrays (ordered lists). JSON is widely supported in virtually every programming language and is the primary format for REST APIs, configuration files, and data storage.
