About the project
SOML is a human-friendly config format: bare keys, no commas or top-level braces, comments allowed, and a value's type determined by syntax rather than content. It positions itself as a replacement for JSON and YAML in files people write by hand.
Useful for
- Write a service config with dates, durations, and comments without quotes or commas
- Compare SOML parser behavior using the language-neutral conformance suite
- Replace a YAML config where values like 'no' or '3.10' get wrongly retyped

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
