If yaml didn’t have anchors and 8 different white space formats, it’d be a great replacement for this kind of thing.
But yaml is a mess, and you’d think you could parse it easily, but you can’t.

As someone who works with YAML regularly:
Fuck YAML.
Nah, yaml isn’t great by virtue of itself but with what it competes with. I far, far prefer it to any other BS. Json is garbage for human creation and obviously toml due to above. XML… Obviously just for machines.
Again, only good because of its competition.
