What's the best way to parse JSON in Python? Need help with examples! or Struggling to parse JSON in

Dude, I feel you. My biggest mistake was assuming all JSON keys are strings. Some APIs return numbers as keys, and python’s `json` module freaks out.

Now I always do a `str(key)` if I’m accessing dynamically.

Also, `jq` (command-line tool) is great for testing JSON before you even touch python.
