I recently discovered Strict YAML, it sounds it makes lots of sense but there is only a python implementation.
I like YAML, it is super easy to read, I like it for simple configuration, it works good for Ansible, Github actions use it. I never ran into any issues, but reading about it I get why people do not like some parts of it. I think it may have to many features that nobody uses, but the features to cloning and injecting and merging content is are kind of cool, used them once for config that got a lot or repeated stuff.
- spicybright 3y agoI'm not a fan of YAML. But frankly people complaining about YAML is starting to be more annoying. I barely use it and even I can see 80% of these issues are from not putting quotes around your values. Maybe config languages are just really easy to bike shed.
