- Description
- YAML is a human-readable data serialization language, commonly used for configuration files and in applications that involve data storage. It is a structured language, based on indentation, that is easy to read and write. YAML files typically have the file extension ".yml" or ".yaml" and they are used to store data in a hierarchical structure.
- An XML file is an XML (Extensible Markup Language) data file. It is formatted much like an .HTML document, but uses custom tags to define objects and the data within each object. XML files can be thought of as a text-based database.
