alurm/json2dir
Directory archives, made human-readable
json2dir is a small Rust command-line tool that converts a JSON document into a real directory tree. Objects become directories, strings become file contents, and arrays represent symlinks or executable scripts. It's useful wherever JSON can be generated, such as managing dotfiles with Nix instead of home-manager.
Why now: It's being shared on Mastodon as a neat open-source tool, likely due to its novel JSON-to-directory scheme and Nix dotfiles use case; no specific release event is mentioned.
Who it is for: Developers, especially Nix users, who want to materialize JSON descriptions into files, directories, and symlinks.
