I used jsonlint.com several times per day but the ads became too much. I revised the existing version and added dark mode and made the editor front and center. Enjoy.

So you used the existing version as a base, then iterated on it? If so, that is a sketchy way to do it. Start from scratch and you are golden, but copy/paste/iterate isn't cool.

Wasn't trying to be 'sketchy.' I gave attribution on the GH repo page and made my goal clear: faster load and refreshed UI.
