  That doesn’t really work when you need two comments at the same level, since they’d both have the same key

    write json with comments. Use a yaml parser.

      If you’re reaching for yaml, why not use toml?

        because of the cut and paste problem. It works in json.

        Every time i try to use toml, i end up going back to json

    It still works since multiple identical keys are still valid json. Although that in itself isn’t fantastic imo.
