Tutorials

Start-to-finish ajq walkthroughs.

Run these in order. The second tutorial uses the setup from the first.

Available tutorials

  1. Your first ajq pipeline — install nothing, run a real jq query through ajq, and see byte-for-byte deterministic output.
  2. See how ajq plans a semantic query — write your first fuzzy predicate and use --explain to watch ajq split it into a deterministic part and a semantic part.

For task-focused instructions, see the how-to guides.
