About CSV to JSON
To convert CSV to JSON, the tool reads the first row of your CSV data as the object keys (headers), and maps the subsequent rows to these keys. This transforms the flat tabular data into an array of JSON objects. The entire parsing process happens locally using JavaScript, without sending your data to an external server.
