## Overview

This hub groups tools for JSON schema generation, mock payload building, and API fixture preparation. It helps users infer schemas, build mock APIs, generate test data, create JSON-LD, and prepare reusable JSON query or transform setups.

## Tools

- JSON Schema Generator: Infer JSON Schema from sample JSON, optionally merge manual schema edits, and validate data against the active schema
- XLSX Sheet To JSON Schema: Infer JSON Schema from worksheet headers and sample rows with types, enum candidates, and basic constraints
- API Mock Server: Generate a runnable Redis-backed mock API server with 1-hour TTL, hot updates, and dynamic templated responses
- Test Data Faker Builder: Generate structured test data from field configuration with support for faker fields, regex rules, credit cards, IDs, and batch export
- Regex to String Generator: Generate random strings that match a given regular expression pattern
- JSON-LD Generator from CSV: Turn CSV or Excel rows into Schema.org JSON-LD for articles, products, or events, with validation-ready output for SEO workflows
- JSONPath Query Tool: Query arbitrary JSON with JSONPath expressions, preview matches, switch output modes, and save reusable query templates
- JSON Data Lineage Tracer: Trace JSON field paths, derived dependencies, and transformation history to build a field-level lineage graph
- JSONata Query & Transform Studio: Preview JSONata-style queries and transformations, compare results across sample payloads, and export the transformed output as JSON, CSV, YAML, or Markdown
- API Contract Stress Tester: Generate boundary-value test cases from an OpenAPI 3.x document and optionally send them to a real backend to spot contract mismatches
- Mock Data Prefix / Abbreviation Conflict Detector: Detect visually confusing field names and prefix collisions in CSV, JSON, or schema inputs, then suggest clearer renames

## Samples

- JSON Samples: JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format examples from simple to complex structures
- Chat Transcript JSON Samples: JSON examples for multi-role chat transcripts
- Rich Media JSON Samples: JSON examples for popular rich text editors (TipTap, Quill, Slate)
- Terraform Plan JSON Samples: Sample Terraform plan JSON files exported from terraform show -json style payloads for dependency visualization and change review
- OpenAPI/Swagger Samples: Comprehensive API documentation examples using OpenAPI 3.0 and Swagger specifications for RESTful services
- CSV Samples: Sample CSV files with various data types, sizes, and complexity levels

## Frequently asked questions

### What can I do in this hub?

You can infer schemas, build mock APIs, generate test data, create JSON-LD, and prepare reusable JSON query or transform setups.

### Who is this hub for?

It is useful for backend teams, frontend teams, QA engineers, and data engineers working with JSON contracts.

### How should I start?

Start with the sample payload closest to your target structure, then decide whether you need schema, mock data, or fixture generation first.
