Format Minified API Responses So You Can Read Them Fast
Pretty-print unreadable payloads, normalize the structure, and hand off a clean response for debugging or code review.
Why this workflow matters
Raw API responses usually arrive minified or compressed into a single line. That slows reviews, hides structural issues, and makes it harder to compare environments or explain a bug to a teammate.
What success looks like
- Turn one-line blobs into readable payloads instantly.
- Make diffs and screenshots clearer for tickets and pull requests.
- Surface nested structure problems before deeper debugging starts.
