Are there any JSON editors on Windows?

  • I tried Notepad++, but it only supports JSON with third party plug-ins which need to be called from Notepad++'s menus each time you open a JSON file. And some of them do not work properly.

  • I tried Gedit for Windows, but it does not support JSON by default. I could not find support for the Windows version.

  • Most of the JSON services I found are Internet-based (used from the browser). I cannot use them offline.

  • All JSON extensions for browsers (Chrome and Firefox) can only read (format or validate) the JSON file. I could not find any JSON editor extensions. I don't want to use extensions because most of them (all the extension that I have tried) do not work with local files. They are only enabling themselves when I download a JSON file from the Internet.

Thanks in advance...
