Good morning!

quicktype infers types from sample JSON data, then outputs strongly typed models and serializers for working with that data in your desired programming language. In short, quicktype makes it a breeze to work with JSON type-safely.

For an in-depth explanation of what makes quicktype useful, special, and interesting, see http://blog.quicktype.io/debut/

Thank you for your consideration and feedback!

Why anyone would want to be associated with uber at this point is beyond me...

It was a joke—quicktype has basically nothing in common with Uber. I couldn't find a way to describe quicktype within the stringent title length limit so I went with the "Uber for X" cliché as a provocative gag :)

The cross button on " Subscribe to quicktype updates" doesn't work. Mildly infuriating :)

edit: this is great !

Sorry to hear that! What browser are you using? Do you get an error on your console?

Tried on both firefox/chrome. Didn't check for console errors. I went back to the previously opened tab and the cross worked this time. Unable to reproduce now.

Looks like our click target for the close icon is way too small. Will fix, thanks for reporting!
