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

Nah, BeautifulSoup can’t parse JSON. It’s strictly HTML/XML.

For JSON, Python’s `json` module is the way to go. If you’re fetching data, `requests` makes it trivial:

```python
data = requests.get(url).json()
```

For big or messy JSON, try `jq` (command-line) or `pandas` for analysis.
