    For those that prefer a command line tool, jq has been around for a while and works very well. I can't count how many times jq let me hack together a bunch of commands I normally would have had to write a small program for. e.g small script that pushes the latest semver tag from a github repo to a geckoboard text widget: https://gist.github.com/jdc0589/67df901f71d96b7649b4

    Is this a GUI for jq?

    The video looks like you are combining keys?

    You could just do this with http://jsonunroller.appspot.com/ and grep.

    Why such tools are more common on OS X?

    XPath for JSON? Who would have thought of that! Now add namespaces and you reinvented XML 10 years later
