TOON Runtime

Native JavaScript access with schema-aware serialization.

Tagged template

import { toon } from "toonkit2";

const employees = toon`
employees[2]{id:n,name:s,salary:n,active:b}:
1,Riya,90000,true
2,John,80000,false
`;

employees[0].salary = 95000;
employees.push({ id: 3, name: "Manoj", salary: 100000, active: true });
console.log(employees.toToon());

The returned value is a real array or object, so property access, push/pop/splice, map/filter/find/reduce, destructuring, and JSON.stringify work normally. Mutations are reflected in toToon(). Parsed values also expose toJSON()to return a plain JavaScript clone; row counts and schemas are recalculated automatically.

Helpers

toon.toToon(employees);
toon.toJSON(employees);
toon.clone(employees);
toon.equals(a, b);
