Hey everyone 👋
I often had to convert Excel tables into JSON configuration files — and I kept doing it manually, making mistakes all the time.
So I built a small tool:
JSON Automator
➡️ Convert Excel (.xlsx) → clean JSON
➡️ Optional config validation (required fields, ints, bools, URLs, duplicates)
➡️ No account, free (beta)
🚀 Try it here
https://json-automator.up.railway.app
Source code (FastAPI, Python):
https://github.com/Inoruth/json-automator
Why I built it
Many teams still keep configuration data in Excel.
But someone eventually has to rewrite everything into JSON — and mistakes happen easily.
I wanted something simple:
- upload Excel
- validate
- get JSON
- done.
I'd really appreciate feedback 🙏
If you try it:
- Did it help?
- Anything confusing?
- Any missing validation rules?
- Bugs or edge-cases?
Comments are welcome — it will help me decide what to build next.
Thanks for reading! 🚀
