aioli VS vim-jqplay

I am using https://github.com/biowasm/aioli which provides a already compiled wasm jq along with all the related support code for calling it

I, and many others, use jq play[0] a lot to craft queries.

However, jqplay.org sends everything to a back end behind the scene, so it can be slow for big input json, and not great for privacy.

Someone recently integrated jq compiled to web assembly in aioli.js[1], so I decided to make a jq play clone that runs in the browser.

It does not support sharing a query, but it's minimal, and does what I need for now.

Nice!

Let me piggyback to mention the (neo)vim plugin I use for tightening the loop... https://github.com/phelipetls/vim-jqplay

It's great for building large complex queries that will eventually live in scripts, but your zsh plugin seems to hit a real sweet spot of fast feedback for ad-hoc queries too! Huge props!

As I got too much into jq by attempting to port a Vim-only jq playground plugin to be compatible with Neovim as well, I wished for something that would quickly tell me how to access the value under the cursor in a JSON file. I knew treesitter was good at this stuff, so I studied just enough to implement this.
