Validate TOML configuration files

What is TOML?

TOML (Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language) is a configuration file format designed to be easy to read due to its clear semantics. It's widely used in Rust (Cargo.toml), Python (pyproject.toml), and many other modern applications.

This validator checks your TOML syntax in real-time, catching common errors like unclosed brackets, missing keys, and unterminated strings.

FAQ

How is TOML different from YAML?

TOML uses explicit key = value syntax while YAML relies on indentation. TOML is less prone to whitespace errors.
