Cool. TOML is used quite extensively in Rust projects. I think it's awesome for very simple configurations. And newcomers don't have to learn anything in order to change a TOML configuration, which is very powerfull.

Yeah, Cargo and Rust have been really important in TOML gaining adoption. Love the Rust community!

TOML is a great format, but it can not universally replace JSON, because it's designed for small nested depth.

I've been trying to push RON as an alternative, and it works very well for WebRender, Amethyst, and other projects in Rust.
