Why is my JSON invalid?

Common causes: trailing commas after the last property, single-quoted strings instead of double quotes, unescaped line breaks inside strings, and comments (JSON does not allow // or /* */). The formatter highlights the parse error line when the browser reports a position—fix that token first, then re-validate.
