VisualJSON
VisualJSON is a developer utility for macOS that provides a visual interface for inspecting, editing and working with JSON data. It allows developers to view JSON files and structures in a hierarchical tree format, making it easier to navigate and understand complex nested JSON documents. The app targets developers, data engineers and technical users who frequently work with JSON files during development, debugging, or data processing tasks.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find reliable information about VisualJSON's current development status or whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. The bundle ID suggests a small independent developer, and the lack of visible search results may indicate the app is niche or no longer actively distributed. To determine your best course of action, contact the developer directly (if you can locate their website or support email) to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned before macOS 28 ships in September 2028. If VisualJSON is no longer maintained, consider switching to alternative JSON editors that ship natively on Apple Silicon: VS Code with the JSON extension (free, highly capable), JetBrains WebStorm (commercial, full IDE), or BBEdit (commercial, lightweight editor with JSON support) all run natively on M-series Macs and are actively maintained. Since an Intel-only build of VisualJSON will stop launching entirely when Rosetta 2 is removed in September 2028, it is worth making this check sooner rather than later.
