I'd like to know how it compares to https://jsonata.org
[ Parent
| on HN ]
JSONata looks to be more general purpose with its support for variables/statements, and custom functions. I'd probably still stick with JSONata
Can't you just visit both pages, build an understanding and compare them?

Maybe the author would be in a better place to do that, having the expertise already. Also, as a user I'm quite happy with jq already, so why expend the effort?
We wrote an article on this: "JQ vs. JSONata: Language and Tooling Compared".
