And I’ll show you YAML
(a continuation of this post)
Norway.
Ups. Sorry, I meant “NO”.
Json. Your move, Joker.
For serializing? I’d probably just go with json.
For content meant to be written or edited by humans? YAML all day baby
Ever tried NestedText? It’s like basic YAML but everything is a string (types are up to the code that ingests it), and you never ever need to escape a character.
I’ve got too many consumers that I don’t control which dictate their input formats. And to be quite honest, “types are up to the code that ingests it” sounds like a huge negative to me.
So much json here. All wrong, it’s csv
Yaml is a great, human-readible file format. Unless there’s an exclamation point in it, then it is an illegible Eldrich horror.
