Hi HN, Can someone help point me in the right direction? I'm looking for a tool to simplify the code generation of typed structs across platforms. This (boring) tool would allow me to:

1. Declare the schema of many data types

2. Use the schema to generate structs from those data types in multiple languages (Golang, Typescript, Dart)

3. Easily serialize and deserialize those types to and from JSON

My Google-fu seems to be pretty awful because I cannot find a single tool that allows me to declare a type schema without it also being an alternative to JSON.

Any boring solutions out there?

I would like to know what tools your company uses to manage knowledge. It doesn't necessarily mean a tool like Confluence but maybe something more general purpose like Google Drive.

I am particularly interested in how you use it to create long lived documents (sprint meetings/coding documentation/meeting notes) and what use cases it is best suited for. We currently use Confluence but its design is clunky and slow. It is damn near painful to navigate and I dread when I have to use it to write documentation. It also doesn't seem suited to supporting code in the way that I would like (inline code is not natively supported) so it becomes less useful for creating a best practices guide for instance.
