It’s been an addiction coding for this project I started a year ago, and I have enjoyed every bit of it. I believe it has high value, it just hasn’t reached the right audience yet. Maybe this time, it will find the people who have been looking for it.

How about a repost as Show HN?

This is a nice tool. It would have a lot of potential as an open source project or IDE plugin. I'm not sure who'd pay for it though - an IDE for just JSON documents seems like quite a niche for a SaaS business to fill. Good luck!

Nice project. I like the object exploration side, being able to dive deeper and deeper into properties nicely. But the editing side seems difficult to use. If i didn't miss a better way, I still have to edit an object as a JSON text (although only the nested part). For example if I delete a double quote, it wouldn't let me save, but does not help me understand what I have broken. I would like a way to edit a value inline in the graph box.

Good take! I'll put it into my roadmap.
