Config.Tips

YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language™) is one of the most commonly used configuration file formats used by developers. It mimics JSON in data structure but is more readable and easier to write and understand. YAML files use the .yaml or .yml extension, and is composed of colon-separated key-value pairs. The data types supported by YAML include numbers, booleans, strings, lists, and dictionaries.
