You can use this npm

npm install file-saver --save
import { saveAs } from 'file-saver';


obj = {
    ...
};


const blob = new Blob([JSON.stringify(obj)], {type : 'application/json'});
saveAs(blob, 'test.json');

If you want to save data using node.js

var fs = require('fs');
fs.writeFile("/fileName.json", myData, function(err) {
if(err) {
    return console.log(err);
}

console.log("The file was saved!");
});
