It works, but that's quite a lot of boilerplate... Hopefully, there's a better way:
```cpp
// person -> json
ns::person p = createPerson();
// create a person
ns::person p {"Ned Flanders", "744 Evergreen Terrace", 60};
// conversion: person -> json
json j = p;
// json -> person
auto p2 = j.get<ns::person>();
std::cout << j << std::endl;
// {"address":"744 Evergreen Terrace","age":60,"name":"Ned Flanders"}
// conversion: json -> person
ns::person p2 = j;
// that's it
assert(p == p2);
```
