- contravariant 5y agoNot sure if 'much more powerful' is a desirable feature for a configuration file language.
- Spivak 5y agoThe ideal configuration format is really powerful and expressive for the author but resolves to a dead simple data structure for the consumer. If you need to template your config files for anything other than supplying external data it’s not expressive enough. I think YAML is closer than many of its contemporaries to this.
