Introduction

json2docx-templater-v1 converts JSON content into fully populated DOCX documents by matching data fields with template placeholders. It solves the problem of repetitive document editing and copy-pasting by letting structured data drive the output. This tool is ideal for developers, automation engineers, and teams generating reports, contracts, or structured documents regularly.

How the templating works

• Uses placeholder tags inside DOCX files to map JSON fields directly.
• Supports plain text, nested objects, lists, bullet lists, and tables.
• Keeps document formatting intact while injecting dynamic content.
• Works well in automated pipelines and batch document generation.
