FAQ

What is CSV?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple text format for tabular data. Each line is a row, and values within a row are separated by commas. The first row typically contains headers.

When should I use JSON vs CSV?

Use CSV for simple tabular data, spreadsheets, and data exchange with non-technical users. Use JSON for nested data structures, APIs, and web applications.

How are special characters handled?

Fields containing commas or quotes are wrapped in double quotes. A literal quote inside a field is escaped as two double quotes ("").
