@isection{What's the sum of all the numbers in the document?}
I've never liked JavaScript, and spending more time with Racket has only deepened my antipathy. So I apologize if this solution is terse.
We need to parse the JSON file, extract the numbers, and add them.
To parse the file we'll use the @iracket[read-json] function from Racket's @racketmodname[json] library. This function converts the JSON into a JS-expression (see @iracket[jsexpr?]), which is a recursively nested data structure. If we had a simple recursively nested list, we could just @iracket[flatten] it and filter for the numbers. We'll do something similar here  recursively flatten the JS-expression and pull out the numbers.
If you're new to Racket, notice the @italic{recursive descent} pattern used in @racket[flatten-jsexpr]  it's a very common way of handling recursively structured data.

@section{What's the sum of all the numbers, if hash tables with value @racket{red} are ignored?}
We'll just update our flattening function to skip over hash tables that have @racket{red} among the values.
