				I used google spreadsheets with a json export script. But that's only viable for personal manual data gathering and not something you would serve a user.
 
 For that you'd need a website or form service like https://www.wufoo.com/ and a database like firebase real time database.

				 C0D4644186y{"firstname": "abc", "last C0D4644186y{"firstname": "abc", "last
 name":"xyz", "sex":"often", "age": "99"}
 
 That was hard 🤷♂️
 
 You could just build a form and convert to json, I mean, you are a dev right?

				@alexbrooklyn wow! seting up a php instance for something that can be done in 10 minutes with client side html, css, and javascript. You like to use the big battleship canon to kill a moscito don't you? 😀

				@heyheni oh shit, I almost forgot that javascript existed for that 😅 whoops
 
 Btw, add blockhain, docker, k8s and a redis db to make sure the app works properly

				 C0D4644186y@heyheni php setup is seconds if you download the binaries, C0D4644186y@heyheni php setup is seconds if you download the binaries,
 open cmd/terminal
 
 php -a
 
 echo json_encode(array("firstname" => "hey", "lastname" => "heni"));
 
 Copy output
 
 I think it would have been quicker to do it then write this thing on my phone 🤦♂️😂
 
 But then opening a browser console and adding
 
 let arr = [ "Bob", "Marley", "Chester", "Heyheni" ];
 Console.debug(JSON.stringify(arr));
 
 Could work too, I mean it's pretty intensive though.

				@C0D4 typing code on phone is the worst. I also hate it when I am talking about .NET a few times in a message because of the automatic space removal...

				 C0D4644186y@Codex404 autocomplete + random spaces are the worst when trying to write syntax on a phone. C0D4644186y@Codex404 autocomplete + random spaces are the worst when trying to write syntax on a phone.
 
 It's ok for small things (well it's tolerable)

				delete196yRandom related tip if you are on a Mac. You can use the Xcode plist editor to make hierarchical data structures and then save as or convert them to JSON with putil
 
 plutil -convert json data.plist -o data.json












Is there a gui for json generator? eg a form in which i can enter first Name, LastName, Sex etc... then it generates the correct json.
