JSON to TOML Converter
Convert JSON data to TOML configuration format
What is a JSON to TOML converter?
A JSON to TOML converter transforms JSON data into TOML (Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language) format. TOML is a configuration file format that's more readable than JSON and commonly used in Rust, Python, and other projects.
How do I convert JSON to TOML?
Paste your JSON data into the input field and click 'Convert to TOML'. The tool will generate properly formatted TOML with sections, key-value pairs, and arrays.
Why convert JSON to TOML?
TOML is preferred for configuration files because it's more human-readable, supports comments, and has clearer syntax. It's widely used in Cargo (Rust), Poetry (Python), and many modern tools.
Does the converter handle nested objects?
Yes! Nested objects are converted to TOML tables using bracket notation ([section.subsection]). The converter maintains the full hierarchy of your JSON data.
Can I convert arrays in JSON?
Yes! Simple arrays are converted to TOML arrays ([1, 2, 3]). Arrays of objects become array-of-tables using double brackets ([[array.item]]).
Are data types preserved?
Yes! The converter maintains strings, numbers, booleans, and null values. TOML also supports dates and times which can be added manually if needed.
What if my JSON has special characters?
Special characters in strings are properly escaped in the TOML output. Quotes, backslashes, and other special characters are handled automatically.
Can I convert TOML back to JSON?
Yes! We also have a TOML to JSON converter tool available in the tools menu for converting data in the opposite direction.
Is my data secure when using this tool?
Absolutely! All conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your JSON data never leaves your computer, ensuring complete privacy and security.
Does the tool work offline?
Yes! Once the page is loaded, the converter works completely offline. All processing happens locally in your browser without requiring an internet connection.
