Jiffy - JavaScript File Editor

You've got flat files? That's understandable.

Jiffy is a flat file editor written in JavaScript. It's a quick, easy way to view and edit your data files using only a browser.

Jiffy uses the JavaScript File API so that everything is done locally. Your file data is kept private and never sent to a server. It supports modern HTML5 browsers.

JSON files define file layouts, data types, and formats. Use these to teach Jiffy your own custom file formats without writing any code. For details, see the wiki. Jiffy includes definitions for formats such as NACHA ACH files.

You can run Jiffy locally or use our online version. Create your own data files or download some samples.
