- TOML spec:
Every time I have reached for TOML I have ended up using JSON. The first reason is that Python standard library can read but not write TOML, which is generally useless for me. The second reason is TOML does not add any benefit over JSON. It’s not that much easier to read and IMO JSON is easier to write by hand because the syntax rules are completely obvious.
TOML is mainly for humans to write, certainly not a good choice if you’re programmatically writing files - comments and formatting would be lost.
