No doubt they both have their benefits, however in an environment particularly suited for working with JSON, like node.js, the additional overhead of a YAML (or other) parser may not be desirable.
- mercurial 13y agoWhy not? After all, since JSON is not a proper Javascript subset, you still need to parse it somehow. And as JSON is a proper subset of YAML, you should get by with a YAML parser.
