- XML is better than YAML
- Lingy brings to Perl what Clojure did for Java
- Docker Compose With TOML?

This just sucks.
Here are some examples.
-
Python 3.11 is out !
It's got a pretty complex spec and it does not take much to become completely unreadable by humans, not to mention the issues with parsing it.
- Does viper catch yaml config files with invalid syntax
-
Bob: A build system beyond building
Even simple examples don't get parsed the same between implementations.
-
copygen: Generate type-to-type and field-to-field struct code without reflection or dependencies (391x faster than copier)
There are plenty of well documented issues with YAML.
-
How to use YAML Aliases
Looks like some of this is either unsupported or unpredictable by different YAML parsers: https://github.com/cblp/yaml-sucks
-
Tuxedo control center: community edition
YAML sucks, use TOML instead. It is much more sane and as easy to use as YAML.
json5
- JSON5 – JSON for Humans
- Why the fuck are we templating YAML? (2019)
-
I pre-released my project "json-responder" written in Rust
JSON5 support
-
topoconfig: enhancing config declarations with graphs
Meanwhile, formats have been evolving (JSON5, YAML), config entry points are constantly changing. These fluctuations, fortunately, were covered by tools like the cosmiconfig.

That's a Lot of YAML
I think JSON5 is fairly close to this: https://json5.org
I reckon the only thing it's missing to be truly accessible to non-techies is that string values still need to be quoted, i.e. you can't have:
key: this is my value
(I'm definitely not saying it would be a good idea to allow quotes to be dropped, just that that's the only potential stumbling block I see for non-techies.)

XML is better than YAML
I believe that's JSON5.
https://github.com/json5/json5
It's my preferred configuration file format, it fixes all the problems I have with JSON (trailing commas, comments) without turning it into a mess full of gotchas like YAML.
- Fx – Terminal JSON Viewer
- What Is Wrong with TOML?
-
🚀 'GET' API in API Maker
JSON 5 support
-
TySON: a native go library that lets you use TypeScript as an embedded configuration language without depending on Node or V8
I would like to see mention of JSON5 which is 11 years its elder. For comments in JSON, JSON5 is a good starting point.
