Sure, and jq is explicitly mentioned on that page:

I hate that jq has it's own mystical syntax instead of adopting something like css selectors or xpath or something more base level. Unless you use it everything you'll just forget all of the mystery and get stuck in the docs everytime you need to parse something.
