Need help converting JSON to CSV in Python? Best methods for 'python json to csv'?

Honestly, I’ve been using the `csv` and `json` modules together for *python json to csv* conversions, and it’s not as bad as it sounds.

Here’s a simple example:

```python
import json
import csv

with open('data.json') as json_file:
data = json.load(json_file)

with open('output.csv', 'w', newline='') as csv_file:
writer = csv.writer(csv_file)
writer.writerow(data[0].keys()) # header
for item in data:
writer.writerow(item.values())
```

It’s a bit more manual, but you have full control over the process. Plus, no pandas dependency if that’s a concern.
