Format JSON response from curl

Pretty Print JSON responses from curl

• When you use curl to manually make API calls, sometimes the response is not formatted
• You can pipe json_pp at the end so you have a prettier json response

$ curl 'https://til.hashrocket.com/api/developer_posts.json?username=gabrielreis' | json_pp
