HugeJsonViewer

Viewer for JSON files that can be GBs large.

Inspired by a Question on Software Recommendations, I wrote this viewer for very large JSON files. It can open files of 1.4 GB in size or even larger, as long as you have ~7 times the amount of RAM on your machine.

These will be the last releases which are code-signed and time-stamped. My code signing certificate is expired and I don't want to buy a new one.

How to build

In order to build the project, you need DevExpress as the UI toolkit. The license file mentions XtraVerticalGrid and XtraTreeList.

The original version was built using VisualBuild. In case you don't have Visual Build, here's a screenshot of what it does:
