XML is meant for computers to read, not humans.

It's 2016. Please use yaml instead!

    noob question:
    why should we use yaml instead of let's say json?

    Yaml is just json for people too lazy to type quotes. yaml is so much less readable. also yeah let's just add another plugin to parse this file even though JSON works fine natively

    @burtybob It did used to stand for that... They backronymed it. True story. Check Wikipedia.
