I could probably extend this a bit (and then optimize it performance
wise) but I have zero application for it; typical stuff that evolves
in a project.
How can I load a (JSON) file from an URL?
Since it’s possible with images, I’m sure there’s already a function in

resolvers.findbinfile("https://microsoftedge.github.io/Demos/json-dummy-data/64KB.json";)

-- util-jsn.lua
local converted_data = utilities.json.tolua(data)
-- inspect(converted_data)
