Version History

Added

• Log JSON fragment visibility: enhanced log-fragment readability with clearer extraction highlighting and improved result presentation.

Improved

• Editor and tab experience: smoother language-mode consistency, better JSON/JSON5 editing continuity, and faster panel response during tab switching.
• Documentation and website polish: refreshed README and website messaging, improved feature showcases, and refined light/dark demo presentation.
• Release workflow resilience: improved release asset/build handling for more predictable packaging output.

Fixed

• Formatting and highlighting consistency: resolved several edge cases affecting JSON5 formatting and mixed-content syntax highlighting behavior.
• Interaction noise in log review: reduced distracting cursor/highlight artifacts and unnecessary prompts during log-fragment workflows.

Added

• Auto-save: add an optional auto-save setting to save modified file-backed tabs automatically.
• Mixed log-like text and JSON formatting: detect JSON, JSON5-like, escaped JSON, and repairable JSON fragments inside log-like text, keep the original editor content unchanged, and display the extracted JSON data as formatted structured results.
• Auto-numbered untitled tabs: new documents are named Untitled-1, Untitled-2, and so on for easier tab identification.
• Unit tests for log JSON extraction: cover mixed logs, multiple fragments, JSON5-like input, escaped JSON, invalid content, and braces inside strings.

Improved

• Paste normalization: auto-format pasted JSON in diff mode and standalone JSON/JSON5/escaped JSON in normal editor mode where appropriate.
• File tab workflow: prompt before closing unsaved changes, reuse an already opened file tab instead of opening duplicates, and keep destructive editor operations undoable.
• Desktop titlebar theming: align the macOS window titlebar background with the active light/dark theme.
• Shortcut registration robustness: prevent application startup failure when shortcut registration fails.

Fixed

• JSON formatting order: preserve object key order instead of sorting keys alphabetically by default.
• Async paste race: avoid overwriting newer user edits when asynchronous paste formatting finishes after additional input.

Added

• JSONPath query mode in Tree View: add a query mode switcher so users can choose between JMESPath and JSONPath directly in the Tree View toolbar.
• JSON5 syntax: The editor and Tree View support parsing and matching of JSON5 data.
• JSON tool landing pages: add dedicated website pages for JSON Formatter, Converter, Schema, and Diff.
• Search engine site verification: add site verification metadata for Google, Baidu, 360 Search, and Sogou.

Improved

• Editor highlighting: optimize JSON/JSON5 highlight feedback to improve readability during querying and navigation.
• Project website SEO: optimize page titles, descriptions, feature wording, and favicon display.
• Documentation updates: update website links and badge formatting in README, add dark-mode screenshots for code generation docs.
• Schema view details: simplify the static divider icon styling for a cleaner and more consistent appearance.

Fixed

• Desktop Monaco initialization: initialize Monaco using the bundled instance to improve desktop build reliability.
• Error icon styling: adjust the circular details of the error icon.
