What is the use case? I mean for configuration maybe but for serialization significant white space can be a waste of space.

I would rather be homeless than write another line of yaml.

>>106038261 (OP)
it's json but with less brackets

>>106038295
Basically JSON but much more pleasant to write and it has comments

You can omit a bunch of quote marks though, and if you’re really trying to reduce over-the-wire space taken you can just output YAML in the flow style so it looks like JSON

This would be more unpleasant to write as JSON
