jc (JSON formatting tool)

CLI tool and python library that converts the output of popular command-line tools and file-types to JSON or Dictionaries. This allows piping of output to tools like jq and simplifying automation scripts.

Ironically, this is what PowerShell took as a fundamental principle: a pipeline/stream of objects, rather than just JSON.
