YAML Validator

Paste any YAML — a Kubernetes manifest, a Docker Compose file, a CI config — and get instant syntax checking with line numbers, plus best-practice lints. It runs entirely in your browser, so your config never leaves your machine.

What it checks

• Syntax errors with the exact line and column.
• Tab indentation (YAML forbids tabs — a common gotcha).
• Duplicate mapping keys and multi-document streams.
• Kubernetes manifests: required fields, mutable :latest tags, missing resource limits, missing health probes.
• Docker Compose: :latest images and missing restart policies.
