                    // openpyxl style: https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/2.5/styles.html
                    "style": {

                            // openpyxl border styles: // https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/stable/_modules/openpyxl/styles/borders.html
                            "border_style": "medium",
                            "color": "FFFFFFFF"

                }
            ],
            // move row by 2x1
            "skip_columns": 2,
            "skip_rows": 1,
            // change row height
            "row_height": 10
        }
    ],
    "start_column": 1,
    "start_row": 1,
    // change column widths
    "column_widths": [
        {
            // column_number or column_letter
            "column_number": 1,
            "width": 10
        }
    ],
    // set number format (e.g. 1.234 -> 1.23)
    "number_format": "0.00",
    // apply style to all cells
    "default_style": {
        "font": {
            "bold": true
        }
    }
}

Create openpyxl workbook via xlsx_from_json function:

import json
from xlsx_from_json import xlsx_from_json

with open("data.json", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    json_data = json.load(f)

wb = xlsx_from_json(json_data)

Created workbook will have values:

sheet = wb.active
assert sheet.cell(row=2, cell=3).value == "Sample text"

The same true for the styles (cell ctyle + default style):

sheet = wb.active
assert sheet.cell(row=2, cell=3).font.name == "Times New Roman"
assert sheet.cell(row=2, cell=3).font.bold == True

Now you can use workbook according to openpyxl guide.
