JSON Escape/Unescape Tool Documentation 

Introduction 

This tool is designed to assist developers with escaping and unescaping JSON strings. By using this tool, one can quickly convert a standard string into its escaped JSON representation and vice versa. 

How to Use 

Escape JSON Strings: 
  • Input the regular string into the text area labeled "Enter your JSON string here..." 
  • Click the "Escape" button. 
  • The escaped string will appear in the "Output" area. 
Unescape JSON Strings: 
  • Input the escaped JSON string into the text area. 
  • Click the "Unescape" button. 
  • The unescaped, regular string will appear in the "Output" area. 
Clear the Text Areas: To clear both input and output text areas, click the "Clear" button. 

Copy Output: After performing an escape or unescape operation, click the "Copy" button to copy the output string to the clipboard. 

Sample Data for Testing 

Here's a sample JSON with various characters that need escaping:
{
    "name": "Ramesh \"Ramesh\"",
    "age": 30,
    "isAdmin": false,
    "address": {
        "street": "10th\nAvenue",
        "city": "New\tPune",
        "zipcode": "12345"
    },
    "notes": "Ramesh's file can be found at C:\\Users\\Ramesh\\Documents. Please ensure it's updated."
}
Output:
{\n    \"name\": \"Ramesh \\\"Ramesh\\\"\",\n    \"age\": 30,\n    \"isAdmin\": false,\n    \"address\": {\n        \"street\": \"10th\\nAvenue\",\n        \"city\": \"New\\tPune\",\n        \"zipcode\": \"12345\"\n    },\n    \"notes\": \"Ramesh's file can be found at C:\\\\Users\\\\Ramesh\\\\Documents. Please ensure it's updated.\"\n}
This sample JSON includes: 
  • Embedded double quotes (") in the name value. 
  • Newline character (\n) in the street value. 
  • The tab character (\t) in the city value. 
  • Single quote (') in the value of the notes. 
  • Backslashes (\\) in the path within the value of the notes.
Similarly, when you unescape, it should return the JSON to its original form.

Characters Handled 

The following characters are escaped and unescaped by the tool: 
  • Backspace: \b
  • Form feed: \f 
  • Newline: \n 
  • Carriage return: \r 
  • Tab: \t 
  • Double quote: \" 
  • Backslash: \\ 

Notes 

Ensure that the strings you're unescaping have been properly escaped to avoid unintended results. 

The output area is read-only to avoid accidental modifications. Use the "Copy" button to quickly copy its contents.
