ngs

NGS has native support for JSON and nested data structures, making API responses and transformations straightforward without external parsing, as highlighted in the 'Data manipulation' use case.

Built-in syntax for pipes, I/O redirection, and command-line argument construction with automatic exit code error handling, reducing boilerplate compared to Python or bash for Ops tasks.

Functions like debug(), status(), log(), and retry() are built-in to simplify common scripting patterns and improve robustness, directly mentioned in the 'Typical Ops Scripting' section.

The work-in-progress AWS library uses declarative primitives for idempotent resource management without dependency graphs, offering a scripting alternative to tools like Terraform.
