The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has started a revolution in exoplanetary science. From studying in exquisite detail the chemical inventories and physical processes in gas giant exoplanets, the structure and chemical diversity of the enigmatic sub-Neptune population to even providing constraints on the atmospheric make-up of rocky exoplanets, the observatory is enabling cutting-edge science that is touching virtually every sub-area in the field. In this review Chapter, we showcase key highlights from exoplanet science being conducted with this state-of-the-art space observatory, which we believe is representative of the transformational science it is producing. One of the key takeaways from these pioneering JWST observations is how they are starting to reshape not only how we think, study and interpret exoplanet observations -- but how they are also reshaping our intuition about our very own Solar System planets.

Detection of CO, H$_2$O, and OH in WASP-18b with JWST/NIRISS using Direct-Extracted Spectra and Cross-Correlation
Direct pixel-level extraction of NIRISS spectra for WASP-18b followed by cross-correlation yields 4.4σ CO, 3.4σ H2O, and 7.8σ OH detections, with improved abundance constraints from subsequent retrievals.

J0404+1112: A 3-Hour Eclipsing White Dwarf-Brown Dwarf Probing Multiple Atmospheric Regimes
J0404+1112 is a 2.93 hr period totally eclipsing WD+BD system with a hot DA white dwarf (T_eff ~28,000 K) and ~40 M_Jup brown dwarf, enabling isolation of nightside emission and serving as a JWST atmospheric benchmark.
