FAQ
Questions ini owners ask.
- 01
Does it preserve INI sections?
Yes. INI sections like [database] become nested JSON objects and are fully restored when converting back to INI format.
- 02
What config files does this work with?
Any INI-format file: php.ini, my.cnf (MySQL), .editorconfig, Git config, Windows .ini files, and custom application configs.
- 03
Does it handle comments?
Yes. Lines starting with ; or # are treated as comments and properly handled during parsing. Comments are stripped from the JSON output.
