DuckDB as the New jq
Recently, I’ve been interested in the DuckDB project (like a SQLite geared towards data applications). And one of the amazing features is that it has many data importers included without requiring extra dependencies. This means it can natively read and parse JSON as a database table, among many other formats.

Community extensions
DuckDB Community Extensions
DuckDB extensions can now be published via the DuckDB Community Extensions repository. The repository makes it easier for users to install extensions using the INSTALL ⟨extension name⟩ FROM community syntax. Extension developers avoid the burdens of compilation and distribution.
