Format Details
YAML
YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) is a human-friendly data serialization format designed to be more readable than JSON or XML for configuration files and structured data. It uses indentation and minimal punctuation to represent nested data structures, sequences, and mappings in a way that closely resembles natural language. YAML is the native configuration format for Kubernetes, Docker Compose, GitHub Actions, Ansible, and countless other modern developer tools.
TOML
TOML (Tom's Obvious Minimal Language) is a configuration file format designed for maximum human readability with a precisely defined, unambiguous specification. It uses a clean syntax for strings, integers, floats, booleans, datetimes, arrays, and nested tables that maps directly to standard dictionary or hash-map data structures. TOML is the official configuration format for Rust's Cargo package manager and is gaining widespread adoption in modern software projects.
