KDL is a document language with xml-like semantics that looks like you're invoking a bunch of CLI commands!
It's meant to be used both as a serialization format and a configuration language, and is relatively light on syntax compared to XML.
There's a living specification, as well as various implementations. The language is based on SDLang, with a number of modifications and clarifications on its syntax and behavior.
This repository is the official/reference implementation in Rust, and corresponds to the kdl crate
KDL is still extremely new, and discussion about the format should happen over on the spec repo's discussions page. Feel free to jump in and give us your 2 cents!
The code in this repository is covered by the Parity License, a strong copyleft license. That means that you can only use this project if you're working on an open source-licensed product (MIT/Apache projects are ok!)
