Why json-render?

json-render is a Generative UI framework: AI generates interfaces from natural language prompts, constrained to components you define. You set the guardrails, AI generates within them:

• Guardrailed - AI can only use components in your catalog
• Predictable - JSON output matches your schema, every time
• Fast - Stream and render progressively as the model responds
• Cross-Platform - React, Vue, Svelte, Solid (web), React Native (mobile) from the same catalog
• Batteries Included - 36 pre-built shadcn/ui components ready to use

Quick Start

1. Define Your Catalog

import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema } from "@json-render/react/schema";
import { z } from "zod";

const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
  components: {
    Card: {
      props: z.object({ title: z.string() }),
      description: "A card container",
    },
    Metric: {
      props: z.object({
        label: z.string(),
        value: z.string(),
        format: z.enum(["currency", "percent", "number"]).nullable(),
      }),
      description: "Display a metric value",
    },
    Button: {
      props: z.object({
        label: z.string(),
        action: z.string(),
      }),
      description: "Clickable button",
    },
  },
  actions: {
    export_report: { description: "Export dashboard to PDF" },
    refresh_data: { description: "Refresh all metrics" },
  },
});

2. Define Your Components

import { defineRegistry, Renderer } from "@json-render/react";

const { registry } = defineRegistry(catalog, {
  components: {
    Card: ({ props, children }) => (
      <div className="card">
        <h3>{props.title}</h3>
        {children}
      </div>
    ),
    Metric: ({ props }) => (
      <div className="metric">
        <span>{props.label}</span>
        <span>{format(props.value, props.format)}</span>
      </div>
    ),
    Button: ({ props, emit }) => (
      <button onClick={() => emit("press")}>{props.label}</button>
    ),
  },
});

3. Render AI-Generated Specs

function Dashboard({ spec }) {
  return <Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} />;
}

That's it. AI generates JSON, you render it safely.
