- skolemtotem 8y agoAnd if I remember correctly, YAML is a superset of JSON.
- teekert 8y agoYaml is well readable by a human but it's much to tightly defined to be "for humans". It's for machines but readable by humans I'd say. Plus it's got sets and you can embed csv's (just 2 things of the top of my head).
