JSON to TypeScript - Convert JSON to TS Interfaces Online Free | DevToolBox

Free JSON to TypeScript converter. Generate TypeScript interfaces and types from JSON data instantly. Handles nested objects, arrays, and optional properties.

About JSON to TypeScript Conversion

Converting JSON data to TypeScript interfaces is one of the most common tasks in modern web development. TypeScript's type system helps catch errors at compile time and improves code quality through better IDE support and auto-completion. Manually writing interfaces for complex JSON structures is tedious and error-prone. This tool automates the process by analyzing your JSON data and generating accurate TypeScript interfaces. It handles nested objects by creating separate named interfaces, correctly types arrays (including mixed-type arrays as union types), and treats null values appropriately. You can customize the root interface name, toggle the export keyword, and add readonly modifiers. All conversion happens locally in your browser โ€” your JSON data is never sent to any server.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert JSON to TypeScript interfaces?
Paste your JSON data into the left panel, optionally set a root interface name, and click Convert. The tool will generate TypeScript interfaces with proper types for all fields.
Does it handle nested JSON objects?
Yes. Nested objects are converted to separate named interfaces. For example, an 'address' field containing an object will generate both a Root interface and an Address interface.
How are arrays typed in the output?
Homogeneous arrays (all same type) are typed as Type[]. Mixed arrays are typed as union types like (string | number)[]. Empty arrays become unknown[].
Can I use the generated types in my project?
Yes. Copy the output and paste it directly into a .ts or .d.ts file. The generated interfaces are valid TypeScript and ready for production use.
Is my JSON data safe?
Absolutely. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device โ€” no server requests are made.
