TL;DR โก
Turn JSON samples into TypeScript types so API payloads, config objects, and mock data become type-safe faster.

"tags": ["tools", "converter"],
"meta": { "version": 1 }
}Expected Output
interface Root {
id: number;
name: string;
tags: string[];
meta: {
version: number;
};

What is JSON to TypeScript? ๐งญ
JSON to TypeScript infers structural types from JSON input and outputs interfaces or type aliases you can drop into frontend or backend TypeScript projects.
What can it do? โ
- Infer strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, and nested objects.
- Generate TypeScript-friendly property names and nested shapes.
- Use real API responses or config snippets as input.
- Produce copy-ready types for interfaces and type aliases.
How JSON to TypeScript works (Step-by-Step) ๐ช
- Step 1: Paste valid JSON into the editor.
- Step 2: The converter reads the value shape and maps fields to TypeScript types.
- Step 3: Copy the generated interface or type alias into your project.
Common Errors
- Invalid JSON syntax stops type generation.
- A single sample may miss optional fields present in production data.
- Mixed-type arrays can infer broad union types.
Limitations
- Generated types should be reviewed before production use.
- Null-only samples may not reveal the intended non-null type.
- Business rules and runtime validation are not inferred.
Free vs Paid ๐ธ
This tool is 100% free with no usage limits or account required. You can use it for quick conversions without subscriptions or payments.
Official vs Third-Party ๐งช
Folioify provides this as a third-party utility. It does not replace official tools, but offers a fast, accessible alternative for everyday workflows.
Use Cases ๐ก
- Create API response types from example payloads.
- Type frontend state objects during refactors.
- Document JSON configuration with strict TypeScript models.
- Bootstrap types before OpenAPI or schema generation.
Frequently Asked Questions โ
Does it support nested JSON?
Yes. Nested objects become nested TypeScript types with inferred property shapes.
Can it handle optional fields?
Optional fields are inferred from the sample you provide. Use representative payloads with and without optional keys for better results.
Is my JSON uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion runs locally in your browser for privacy.
