Featured Photo by energepic.com I’ve had a love-hate relationship with Bootstrap for a long time. While I love how fast it lets me get going, I absolutely hate the cookie cutter vibe of most of the stuff that I end up making with it. Bootswatch is awesome, and I know that I could customize my theme...

For everything else, there's yq, xq, and tomlq.
- I use all these tools so little that I have to relearn them every single time, making them much less useful to me than they would be otherwise.
  
  yq is a wrapper around jq iirc and has the same syntax, but it do yaml.
  
  Small disclaimer that i think there may be 2 tools known as yq and this is only true of one of them.

One of our data providers gives us hundred megabyte json files. Whenever there is a problem with the data they request examples, jq is invaluable in those instances.
yeah, ls | while read file; do echo blabla $file; done
