Care to explain more? I though they were over engineered compared to bare bones JSON. For e.g. JSON schema is still catching up to XML schema and the ecosystem it had back then (XSLT, XPATH) etc.
XML is of course heavy weight, but we should compare YAML against XML, not JSON - JSON doesn't have for e.g. comments, CDATA etc.
- narrator 5y agoDTD validation and XML schema were overly complicated solutions that didn't cover a lot of validation cases and should have just been implemented via libraries in the target language instead of making developers maintain yet another half-baked DSL. In the end, everything is JavaScript was the better way.
