What YAML and JSON files are

YAML

YAML is a human-readable data format used for configuration files and data exchange. It expresses nested structures through indentation instead of brackets, which makes it easy to read and edit by hand.

JSON

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. It is widely used for APIs, configuration files, and data storage.
