I only use the JSON format. JSON is widespread together with XML. SDL
I heard first time of in the context of Dub and never seen it used
elsewhere. TOML also I know only from Cargo. YAML at least I know from
several different projects.
I guess the tool must be working very well though if the main argument
is what kind of data format to use :)
I also only ever use JSON. When SDL was introduced, it was promised
"JSON will never be deprecated". And here people are wanting to
deprecate JSON as if SDL parsers were all that numerous.
JSON is the answer, SDL is the failed experiment that just bring
disagreement :)
We DO parse dub.json a lot. I suspect any D organization probably does
because dub describe is slow.
I don't care how "inhuman" a 20-line file is.
