The human-first config language.
A hybrid of TOML and JSON designed to be clean, intuitive, and painless to write. No made-up syntax, everything is from other languages you already know.


Key Features

  • Zero Key Quotes: Bare keys for human readability. No "key": "value" noise
  • No [[Table]] Complexity: Objects and lists of objects use clean, intuitive {} syntax you already know!
  • Explicit null Support: Native null values... unlike TOML
  • Explicit Number Types: Support for Ints, Doubles, Floats, and Longs
  • Flexible Lists: Native support for empty lists, homogeneous (single-type) lists, and heterogeneous (mixed-type) lists.
  • Comments: Simple // comments like every other sane language uses

Example

Test = "testing testing"
Double = 5.4
Int = 727
Long = 9223372036854775807l
Float = 6.7f
Booleaning = true

EmptyList = []
Homogeneous = ["im", "so", "very", "gay"]
Heterogeneous = [6.7f, { Yeah = "very strong type yep.." }, 727, ["When would you even use this", false], null]

Object = {
    Objecting = true
    Alpha = {
        NullableMuch = null
    }
    Bravo = {
        ObjectInObject = {
            Woah = "yes"
        }
    }
}

Quick Comparison

Feature JSON TOML Synx
Bare Keys ❌ βœ… βœ…
Explicit null βœ… ❌ βœ…
Simple Object Nesting ❌ (Verbose) ❌ ([[headers]]) βœ… ({})
Proper Numeric Types ❌ ❌ βœ…
Comments ❌ βœ… (#) βœ… (//)

Why I wrote this?

I got pissed off at TOML for the stupid [[ObjectList]] syntax for lists and for not having null and JSON for having to constantly put quotes everywhere.

Let’s not even mention the other configuration/markup languages... YAML?? XML????????

PS: I only found out hocon exists after I wrote the whole thing lmao
