JSONViewer-for-Chrome

JSONViewer-for-Chrome is a Chrome extension for printing JSON nicely when you visit it 'directly' in a browser tab. This allows you to a view JSON string in a tree format. Also, you can open/close sections for better visibility.

Features

• Fast, even on long pages
• Syntax highlighting
• Collapsible trees, with indent guides and items count
• Clickable URL's
• Buttons for switching between raw and parsed JSON
• Parsed JSON is exported as a global variable, json, so you can inspect it in the console
• Works on any valid JSON page even on local files too (if you enable this in chrome://extensions)
