It's just a short demo I recorded right after glueing this stuff together. Most people seem very unimpressed with it :) Does such tool make sense for you if you bolt some UI on top of it or run it on an RPi?
Btw, there's like 30 secs of silence at the start of video, sorry for that.
Fun is the only thing that can justify this blasphemy :)
Why do this instead of:
myvar = read_json_file_as_object('path/to/file')
??
Ok, you can argue that function would hit the hard drive many times when called from multiple modules (while imports would not), but this can be fixed with simple memoization.
