    nushell has replaced all such tools for me. it’s so nice to have a shell environment and structured data parser with a common language interface. once you load the data into nushell it’s trivial to use the same query language you’d use for YAML or JSON or TOML or XML or CSV or your company’s bespoke language that you wrote a parser for in 30 minutes. that plus all the other tooling like a math engine and tools like date humanize and having a modern scripting language and so much more. i can’t recommend nushell enough for people who work with lots of structured data, whether that’s logs or datasets or config files or whatever.
