Hmmm… at first glance, this feels like I’d use it for the same sorts of things I’d use jq for, only easier to use but also way less powerful. Jq does have a little bit of a learning curve necessary to get good use out of it, so I could see this being a nice quick tool for people who don’t want to make that investment. Having already learned jq, I’m not sure why I would reach for gron, but maybe I’m missing something.

Not missing, retaining something: the details of jq. Many developers find this difficult for usual and rarely used tools. See also bash.
