The YAML to JSON Converter utilizes a pure client-side YAML parser (js-yaml) running in your browser.
It parses YAML tokens, builds the abstract syntax tree, resolves anchor references, and constructs a standard JavaScript object model.
The object is then serialized into standard JSON using JSON.stringify() with your chosen indentation level and rendered with syntax highlighting.
