JSON to C#

This lesson is part of Web Developer Tools · All levels

Summary

A JSON to C# converter produces a class with properties that match the JSON structure. Public properties in C# typically use PascalCase, whereas JSON keys often use camelCase or snake_case. To keep the mapping correct, use the JsonPropertyName attribute on System.Text.Json or similar attribute on Newtonsoft.Json. The property type can be a string, int, bool, list, or other class for a clustered object.
