Notepad++ is a very powerful tool with lots of plugins and functionality which can reduce a lot of our work. Today, we will see how to deal with JSON data in Notepad++.

1. First of all, whenever you are opening any data or code file, always select respective language style. How you do it is below -

Open data/code file --> Go to Language Menu --> Select respective language setting (in our case, its J - JSON )
