- user5994461 9y agoHopefully, it was avoided on purpose because it's a complete nightmare to use.
- wstrange 9y agoHonest question: How so? I have not used it in anger - just played around with it.
- user5994461 9y agoToo much indirection. You get big files filled with variables, loaded from other big files also full of variables. It's hard to know what you are setting after a while or where it comes from. After a while playing with configuration systems, I'm starting to think that configuration should just be hardcoded once and for all.

I would like to introduce you to HiveMind described here: http://blog.crudzilla.com/2016/10/managing-configurations-with-object.html http://blog.crudzilla.com/2016/10/managing-configurations-wi... It addresses the issues that JSSONET does without inventing a new templating language. I am happy to give a skype demo, email me if interested.
