FAQ

What is CSV?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple file format used to store tabular data. Each line represents a row, and values are separated by commas.

How does the conversion work?

The first row of your CSV is treated as headers, and each subsequent row becomes a JSON object with those headers as keys.

Is my data safe?

Yes! All conversion happens locally in your browser. Your data is never sent to any server.
