JSON to TypeScript explained
Infer a TypeScript type from a JSON sample. Every array element contributes to the type union, object keys are quoted safely, null remains null and an empty array becomes unknown[] rather than an invented element type.
A worked example
A sample {"a":1} produces a type with "a": number. A mixed array [1,"x"] produces Array<number | string>.
Before you use the result
A sample cannot prove every future shape. No missing property is guessed or made optional. Review the inferred type against your actual API contract.
