I can't run the examples right now, but looking at the last "print(template.to_json())" line, looks like the main use case is JSON ? On cloud infra, yes, havin

On cloud infra, yes, having one or two layers of languages is a natural situation. GCP and AWS both accepting (encouraging?) JSON as a subset of YAML makes it a simpler choice when choosing an auto generating target.
You mention people wanting to author the generated files, I think in other situations
tweaking the auto-generated files will be seen as riskier with potential overwriting issues, so lower readability will be seen as a positive.
- dissent 1y agoThat's the point really, you can generate JSON or YAML and it doesn't really matter. If you want to include 100 similar objects in that output, you can use a for loop. You can't do that in plain JSON/YAML.
