In ops scripts you constantly do:
curl -s https://api.example.com/data | jq '.items[].name'
Why pair curl + jq?
A) jq is faster than HTTP
B) curl fetches JSON; jq parses + filters JSON, so you can extract
fields cleanly without writing a Python script
C) Together they replace bash itself
D) jq is required to authenticate to APIsSign in to save your code and track progress across devices.
