Does this support quoted CSV values?

Yes. The parser handles quoted fields, escaped double quotes, and delimiters inside quoted values.

What happens when some rows have missing columns?

The tool still generates JSON and flags a warning. Missing cells are filled with empty strings so you can spot and fix the source data quickly.

Is this suitable for sensitive CSV exports?

Yes for local browser usage. Parsing runs client-side, so the CSV data is not sent to a server by this tool.
