You can use a debugging proxy like fiddler to monitor the traffic and
see what the javasript is retrieving. In this case it's retrieving a
json file with the version information. You would then pass that to jq
to process it. For example let's say you want the first array item in
wersjedos and that version information, it would look like this:

curl --proto =https -fLsS https://www.raks.pl/assets/wersje.json | jq
--raw-output ".wersjedos | .[0] | .numer | select(type == \"string\")"

To see how to use curl with jq see https://stedolan.github.io/jq/tutorial/

jq questions are out of the scope of this mailing list, you will have to
ask a jq support channel (?) for questions if you need help parsing the
json.
