About JSON Hero

JSON Hero is an open-source, beautiful JSON explorer for the web that lets you browse, search and navigate your JSON files at speed. The JSON Hero Chrome extension allows you to quickly send JSON to view in JSON Hero. Or turn on *auto-mode and any pure JSON responses in Chrome will be transformed into a JSON Hero view. This extension will also allow you to send JSON from a Github file or a Firestore document right to JSON Hero. Just activate the extension in the toolbar whenever you are viewing a JSON GitHub file or a Firestore document in the Firestore console and they'll open in JSON Hero. * By turning on auto-mode any pure JSON responses will be automatically sent to jsonhero.io. If you are running a custom instance of JSON Hero, you can change the server URL in the extension settings.
