## What it is
A Python library that lets you import JSON files directly as if they were Python modules via an import hook. It is explicitly a joke/abomination, with the author warning against using it.

## Use cases
- import json files as python modules
- load json config with import statement
- access json data as module attributes
- treat json file like a python package
- quickly read json without json.load

## When to choose
- you want a quick hack to import JSON config as module attributes in a throwaway script
- you're experimenting with Python import hooks

## When to avoid
- any production code
- you just need to parse JSON - use the standard json module
- you need error handling or schema validation for config files

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: serialization, json, parser, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, files
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: json-import, import-hook, novelty, hack, python
