parse meaning js is all about data transformation.
You start with a string (often JSON), and parsing turns it into a workable format.
Example:
```js
const user = JSON.parse('{"id": 1}');
// Now you can do user.id
```
Common pitfall? Assuming the input is always valid. Always validate first!
Tools? Joi or Zod for validation before parsing.
