Stop using JSON for configuration files

  You can always create a simple utility that converts the EDN syntax to JSON. That way you get the syntax you want with a trivial and correct automatic conversion.

    Post author here. At the end I mention a tool I created to just that: https://www.npmjs.com/package/edn-to-json https://www.npmjs.com/package/edn-to-json

  Tend to agree -- JSON is a bit annoying. What about YAML? I love it for configs. Two of my favorite devops tools use YAML (docker-compose and ansible)
