Problem: I am trying to view a huge JSON file.
Viewing this directly in VS Code, there is no syntax highlighting or folding. Navigating this JSON tree is incredibly difficult.
Solution: So, I created a new JavaScript file:
const data = require('./webpack.stats_master.json')
debugger
…and pressed F5.
This starts a Node.js debugging session.
Now, JSON data is visualized in a tree view. Problem is solved.

Still works only when the Json is not TOO large (>700mb here)
Smart!
