Free mods list
One option might be to look at the Path of Building “Data” folder. If you need them in another format (e.g. json), it wouldn’t be that hard to write a Lua script to export them in your preferred format (using this json library, for example.

A question about save/load.
If you don't want to reinvent the wheels, you might want a json encoder to transform data into strings and back. Or bitser if you want better performance and smaller files in exchange for human-readability.

Plain Text. With Lines
Honestly, I just went with JSON because there's a nice Lua library for it (thank you https://github.com/rxi/json.lua).
I haven't thought about the file format much so far, just the experience of writing in it as if it's the "ground truth". We all seldom open our text files in a hex editor.

Indexing / substrings
I like this json library and tend to use it for save files (also makes them easy to edit by hand while debugging). It gets angry if you use tables with a mix of string and numerical keys, but I'd advise against that anyway. I've also used binser, which is also effective and easy to use.

Plain Text. With Lines
becomes a colored bar chart with three bars. So the file is both kinda readable in a plain text editor, in a browser with js disabled (with React server side rendering), and in the richest version with JS enabled. I don't have a WYSIWYG editor for the widgets though, that's pretty neat.
