Why do ppl think building something through yaml is ever a good idea??
(I know why: for a platform it’s simpler to parse a yaml than to run code, but it’s almost never a good idea for anything that needs to scale in complexity)
What is a better format that allows inline comments, is human readable, and can be easily converted to other formats (json, xml, et al)
The comments are why I prefer YAML for config over JSON. Of course, JSON is great for many purposes, especially machine to machine. For human to machine, I prefer YAML.
DAC currently supports YAML and JSX, what else would be a good alternative?
