How it works
How to use the JSON to Kotlin
Paste JSON
Paste a JSON object or array — for example an API response — or open a file.
Tune the output
Set the root type name and language-specific options. Nested objects get their own types named after their keys.
Use the Kotlin code
Decode with Json.decodeFromString<Order>(text) (kotlinx) or your library of choice.
How the Kotlin code is generated
The JSON is analysed value by value. Objects inside the same array are merged, so a property that appears only in some items becomes optional, values that are sometimes null become nullable, and identical nested shapes share a single type. Names are converted to Kotlin conventions, with serialization annotations wherever the original key differs.
Usage: Decode with Json.decodeFromString

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How are optional and nullable fields detected?
A property that is missing from some objects in an array is optional; a property that is null in the sample is nullable. The more representative your sample, the more accurate the types.
What happens with mixed types?
Values with different types in different samples become a union where Kotlin supports it, or the language's generic "any JSON value" type otherwise.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — nothing you paste or open is sent to a server, logged or stored. The tool keeps working offline once the page has loaded.
