A web extension that helps you view JSON documents in the browser. Normally when encountering a JSON document (content type application/json), Firefox simply prompts you to download the view. With the JSONView extension, JSON documents are shown in the browser similar to how XML documents are shown. The document is formatted, highlighted, and arrays and objects can be collapsed. Even if the JSON document contains errors, JSONView will still show the raw text. JSONView is a Web extension compatible with Firefox and Google Chrome that helps you view JSON documents in the browser. Once you've got JSONView installed, check out the example JSON file to see the extension in action! If you'd like to contribute to JSONView but don't want to code, consider contributing a translation. Copy the existing localization files from src/_locale and fill them in for your own language, then send a pull request. You can do it all from the GitHub interface. There's not many strings to translate!
