YAML
(YAML Ain't Markup Language)
Human-readable text format for configuration files and structured data
What's it for?
Keeps settings and structured information in a text format that people can read and edit easily.
For example…
A team keeps a readable settings file that lists the names of its services and the options each one should use
A deployment file uses indented lines to describe which parts of an application should run and how they should be configured
