Can BeautifulSoup Process JSON? Or Do I Need Another Tool? Alternatively: Can BeautifulSoup Process J

BeautifulSoup is built for HTML/XML parsing, so no, can beautifulsoup process json? Not really. It’s like using a hammer for a screw—wrong tool.

For JSON, stick with Python’s built-in `json` module. Super easy:

```python
import json
data = json.loads(your_json_string)
```

If you’re pulling JSON from the web, `requests` + `json` is the way to go.
