Frequently asked questions
Why use YAML over JSON?
YAML is more readable for humans - no quotes on strings, no trailing commas, natural indentation. Common in config files (Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions).
Does it handle nested objects?
Yes. Nested objects and arrays are properly indented in the YAML output.
Are strings always quoted?
Only when they contain special characters (:, #, newlines) or could be mistaken for other types. Simple strings are left unquoted.
