YAML: It's Time to Move On

as a counter argument. I work in robotics, where many operators will look at and change settings in a yaml file during testing. They do not have software skills outside of this.

My educated guess then is you could have gotten them to change "settings" in C, Java or basically anything.

Just put the file in the root folder, and keep it as simple as possible and you should be fine? I mean, if they manage to write yaml correctly and consistently C is no match?

maybe? the dynamic loading of the configs kind of restricts it to a markup language.
