Could you build this?
Partial While wrapping common parsers is straightforward, building deep TypeScript compiler plugins and type mappers for TS 7.1 content mappers requires intricate knowledge of the TypeScript compiler API (tsc) and type system internals.
What it would actually take: A real version requires building a TypeScript language service plugin or bundler plugin (unplugin/Vite/esbuild) that generates dynamic d.ts declaration files on the fly for arbitrary data file formats (TOML, YAML, JSON5, etc.). The hardest part is writing type inference engines that transform JSON schemas and arbitrary file contents into statically sound TypeScript types without degrading compiler performance. This requires deep expertise in TypeScript AST transformation, compiler macros/content mappers, and custom type-level metaprogramming.
