assign value based on JSON value using JsonSerializer
So lately ive been getting into the JsonSerializer to create my objects based on a given JSON string, but now im facing the following issue:
I have a checklist object in my project that gets populaed by the JSON gotten from a REST API. the issue however is that the checkbox value is not returned as boolean but rather string: "complete" or "incomplete", is there a way to directly convert this to bool?
TLDR;

you could use this
or just use an enum instead
is there a practical reason it needs to be stored as a string instead of a boolean
IsComplete?there is none, but its the API im working with so sadly i cant change it :SCcrying:
