I'd like to validate untrusted config JSON submitted to my application against a TypeScript interface. If it's bad, I'd like to serialize a TypeScript object with default values, and suggest it as a pattern.

Last time I looked, TypeScript didn't provide runtime access to types and interfaces, so I'm not clear if that's possible without build-time tomfoolery.

I'd prefer to avoid JSON schemas if I can, but I guess that's an option too.

Are there libraries or new-ish language features that I could use?
