JSON Viewer

I ran across an interesting and useful tool today, a JSON Viewer.

To try this tool out, have a look at this by clicking on it. That will open a JSON file that was provided within the JSON viewer.  Click on the "Viewer" tab and have a look.

That JSON information was created by the Pacioli logic/rules/reasoning engine. The XBRL-based report that was used to generate that JSON was this PROOF report. Pacioli took the XBRL instance, XBRL taxonomy, all the rules used to verify the report and generated this file. The file itself is not like an XML file that can expand and collapse because of a stylesheet supported by most browsers.  (Like this)

Now, the JSON provided is not financial report logic based, it is XBRL technical syntax based for the most part. So that file itself is not particularly useful.  One day I will get the information I want if I have to create it myself.

But, this does give me an idea!  Stay tuned.

Here are some other JSON Viewers:
