title: How to import JSON File into a TypeScript file?
body: <p>I am building a map application using Angular Maps and want to import a JSON file as a list of markers defining locations. I'm hoping to use this JSON file as marker[] array inside the app.component.ts . Instead of defining a hardcoded array of markers inside the TypeScript file.</p>
  
  <p>What is the best process of importing this JSON file for use in my project? Any direction greatly appreciated!</p>
