What online checking can find
Quote problems
JSON keys and string values must use double quotes, not single quotes or missing quotes.
Missing commas
Object fields and array elements must be separated by commas.
Bracket mismatch
Unbalanced curly or square bracket pairs will break parsing immediately.
Invalid escape sequences
Broken escape characters in strings can produce parser errors.
