Hello @laolaolulu! If by "frontend JS" you mean the content of the JS script launch in a certain page, then you can use HttpClient to simply pull all of the page content, including the script, and only then serialize that extracted JS content with System.Text.Json.

Be aware though, that the JS (JavaScript) code that you will somehow extract from the page will not be an object, but just a code, which means it's not serializable to JSON as is. Of course unless I misunderstood your question.
