Often find myself getting frustrated editing yaml, and it seems to be used everywhere for some reason I cannot fathom
I have an idea to write an editor plugin that will, when opening a yaml file, convert it to json (or some other less painful configuration language), then convert back on save. I don’t know enough about yaml syntax to know if that’s possible or if there’s some quirk that makes them not completely cross compatible
Or alternatively if it exists a better CLI tool for editing yaml than just a normal text editor because I’m getting sick of pasting in a block of yaml and then having to fix the 8 indentation errors that somehow spawn from that
Same bruv. I hear your cries of pain, sympathize greatly
Try neovim or something. Codium if you like GUIey things.
I’m using neovim. It doesn’t magically solve my problems with yaml though
I’m not a power yaml user by any means, but syntax highlighting and linting pipelines do help.
