How to Use the Stream Formatter

Paste or drop your NDJSON or JSON Lines file to instantly format, validate, and inspect every line.

1. Paste Your Stream

Paste NDJSON/JSONL data or drop a .ndjson, .jsonl, .log, or .txt file into the left panel.

2. Inspect Frames

The stats bar shows total lines, valid frames, errors, and estimated file size. Each line is formatted independently.

3. Export Results

Copy the formatted output, download it as a file, or send all valid frames as a JSON array to the JSON Formatter.
