Adaptivecards: Create Adaptive Cards with JavaScript?

[iwaldman]

Is it possible to create Adaptive Cards with JavaScript? I want to build my cards at run-time, both client and server, and use a builder library i.e. not have to hand write the JSON. Hopefully, this question makes sense?

There's a microsoft-adaptivecards npm module that provides a library for constructing and rendering cards, but that's not going to prevent you from have to work with JSON. Alternately, with the .NET library you can create the card without using JSON, and then pass it back as JSON through serialization to the front-end. Then use the JS library to render it, while attaching whatever actions you need.
