-
-The [Natvis](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/create-custom-views-of-native-objects) file that
-gives `json` values a friendly view in the Visual Studio debugger. The file is generated by
-`tools/generate_natvis/generate_natvis.py` from the template `tools/generate_natvis/nlohmann_json.natvis.j2` and the ABI
-tags and version in `include/nlohmann/detail/abi_macros.hpp`; change the script or the template rather than editing
-the file by hand. The file can be updated by calling
-
-```shell
-make natvis
-```
-
-The "Check amalgamation" workflow fails if the file is out of date.
-
-The file covers the namespace variants with up to two ABI tags. A Natvis file for other configurations can be
-generated with the `--abi-tags` or `--all` options, for example
-`make natvis NATVIS_ARGS="--abi-tags _diag,_dp,_ns --output my_nlohmann_json.natvis"`; see
-[`tools/generate_natvis`](tools/generate_natvis/README.md). With MSVC, CMake adds the file to the `nlohmann_json`
-target and installs it.

-Besides `basic_json`, the library offers a second way to hold a parsed JSON text: a
-[`basic_json_document`](../basic_json_document/index.md), which owns or borrows the text and holds a flat index of the
-values in it, and a [`basic_json_view`](../basic_json_view/index.md), a read-only handle to one value of such a document.
-Both are defined in the header `<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>`; see
