   you can also use this method for space indentation , same as saving the string in dump(2)

   #include "nlohmann/json.hpp"
   #include <fstream>
   #include <iostream>
   #include <iomanip>
   using json = nlohmann::json;
   
   void main()
   {
     json j;
     j["pi"] = 3.141;
     std::string s = j.dump(2);
     std::ofstream file("key.json");
     file << std::setfill(' ') << std::setw(2) << j;
   
   }
