Show HN: TypeScript Editor that generates structured forms from TypeScript types

Wow, this is really great! I've got this case very often when I need non-technical people to send me data in a JSON format, but trying to teach them what JSON is and how to edit it is impossible / takes way too much time.

This is SO close to the solution I need. If I could configure this form using typescript and then send them a link where they can't see or edit the typescript, but just fill out the form and send me the JSON, that would be incredible!!

Oh, I was wondering if people would ask for that exact scenario! I'll see if I can make that happen, check again in a few days :)

This is now implemented. Easier than expected!
