JSON to GO Struct

What is JSON?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data format used to store and exchange data. It’s easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse. Many web APIs use JSON to send and receive data.

What is Go?

Go (or Golang) is a modern programming language created by Google. It’s fast, simple, and great for building web servers, APIs, and cloud services. Go makes it easy to write clean, efficient, and safe code.

How to Use the JSON to Golang Converter

• Paste your JSON code: Insert your JSON into the “Input” box.
• Use Auto Update or manual convert: By default, your Go struct appears instantly. To convert manually, uncheck Auto Update and click Convert.
• View your Go struct: See the generated Go struct in the “Output” box.
• Copy the code: Click the copy icon to save the generated Go code.

Use Cases of JSON to Go Struct Converter

• API integration: Quickly create Go structs to parse API JSON responses.
• Backend development: Define data models for handling JSON in Go apps.
• Data validation: Ensure correct data types for JSON fields in your code.
• Prototyping: Speed up development by auto-generating struct code.
• Learning Go: Helps beginners understand how JSON maps to Go types.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Are field names converted to Go conventions?

Yes. Field names are capitalized using PascalCase so they are exported and accessible in Go.

Can I rename the top-level struct?

Yes. You can manually change the default name (like AutoGenerated) to something meaningful.

Is my JSON data safe?

Yes. Everything runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored online.

Which Go versions is the code compatible with?

The output works with all recent Go versions using the encoding/json package.

Do I need to install anything?

No. This is a free and fully online tool that works in your browser.
