I find jq to be so powerful, and I've written some really complex filters that really get to the data I'm trying to show. but... I can spend hours and hours trying to get it right when a python script would've just gotten it done and let me move on. Does anyone have a good alternative that is "like jq, but doesn't make all my projects late"? or better yet, a GOOD tutorial that helps me wrap my brain around the tersity of jq? Thanks.
