If you cannot write a parser for JSON from scratch: you need to learn how to do that NOW!. Not because you need such a thing (how would I know your random needs?), but because you don't even have the tools under your belt in the first place to write a tokenizer or parser.

why you should be using @astrodotbuild instead of vanilla js .- its like writing html but you get components for free.- you can write typescript in script tags.- you get hmr using vite and access to the vite plugin system.- anything you want is just an `astro add` command away.

@carlosmta_ vanilla js is just a bad dev exp to work with. react, or any component based library/framework lets you write less code and compose your components into a website much more intuively. i personally like @astrodotbuild for landing pages as the authoring experience is just like html.
