About JSON to YAML Conversion
YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) is a human-readable data serialization standard that's often used for configuration files and data exchange. It's more readable than JSON but supports similar data structures.
Key Differences
- Syntax: YAML uses indentation instead of brackets
- Comments: YAML supports comments with #
- Multiline strings: YAML has better multiline string support
- References: YAML supports anchors and aliases
Common Use Cases
- Configuration files (Docker Compose, Kubernetes, CI/CD)
- API definitions (OpenAPI/Swagger)
- Data serialization
- Infrastructure as Code (Ansible, CloudFormation)
