Comment on Homarr - A modern and easy to use dashboard. 30+ integrations. 10K+ icons built in. Authentication out of the box. No YAML, drag and drop configuration.
No thanks. Yaml isn’t perfect but by God json is best used to return and parse data, not input it.
My biggest peeve with JSON when I’m forced to use it as a configuration file format is that it doesn’t have any syntactical support for comments.
So I can’t even add any notes to the file.
Yep this for me too. Thankfully VSCode allows comments in its settings.json / launch.json files but most programs use strict JSON which doesn’t allow comments
Yea, this is a deal breaker imo. My code tends to be 10 to 1 comments to lines of code ratio. Configuration even more so.
jsonc exists for this use case, but few tools actually use it, yaml is far more popular
