soml-lang/soml
A config format for humans
SOML is a new configuration file format designed to be pleasant to write and read. It strips JSON's noise (quotes, commas, braces) while keeping its strictness, adds comments, and avoids YAML's type-guessing pitfalls. Types come from syntax, not content, and it supports native dates, durations, literal strings, and block strings.
Why now: It's trending on Hacker News as a proposed alternative to JSON and YAML, with a draft spec open for feedback.
Who it is for: Developers who write config files and want JSON's predictability with a more human-friendly syntax.
