20 yoe. Never had to write code to transform json into json in a pure way. Maybe XML to XML … once. Good ol XSLT!

By pure I mean with no other requirements such as accessing another data store and running a bunch of rules decided by having several meetings with various people to find out what is actually required… a bit like what chatGPT doesn’t do.




Ya, it's tricky to map that comment to a useful scenario, but maybe getting a json document from an external service and saying "write a function that parses this json and returns this TS structure, but I think that would be a rare efficiency killer for me
