  1. …create a JSON variant that enables comments and the backtick multiline string from JavaScript. [0] https://github.com/bevry/cson

  2. TOML is good. CSON is neat, but it never caught on ( https://github.com/bevry/cson ). There's a very specific, very common, use case that the people who write most markup parsers refuse to support... A good config file format needs to: -…

  4. Looks similar to CSON, at least superficially. https://github.com/bevry/cson
    comment by vortico · 2020-10-04 · in NestedText, a nice alternative to JSON, YAML, TOML
  5. We need to standardize cson ( https://github.com/bevry/cson ) and build a compliant C parser. The format is simpler with fewer surprises as YAML, yet able to handle more types of syntaxes in a straightforward form.

  6. My vote is for CSON: https://github.com/bevry/cson

  8. …JSON is a valid JSON5 unlike with Hjson [0], CSON [1], and the likes. [0]: http://hjson.org/ [1]: https://github.com/bevry/cson

  10. But of course no one uses either when there's Atom/GitHub's favorite: CSON. https://github.com/bevry/cson

  11. No, that would be CSON. https://github.com/bevry/cson

  12. …It is like JSON but in CoffeeScript, which allows comments and multi-line strings as well. [1]: https://github.com/bevry/cson

  13. …a little bit more structure than LCON but less clutter than JSON, I'd recommend checking out CSON. https://github.com/bevry/cson

  14. …implementation quirk rathet than a feature. They're working on a static parser. Check out their WIP https://github.com/bevry/cson/issues/33

  15. It's interesting, the first thing I thought of when looking at this was CSON ( https://github.com/bevry/cson ) which essentially just provides some syntactic sugar on top of JSON like CoffeeScript to JavaScript. I haven't look at this…
