TOML: Tom's Obvious Minimal Language

TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table. TOML should be easy to parse into data structures in a wide variety of languages. TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that: TOML already has implementations in most of the most popular programming languages in use today: C, C#, C++, Clojure, Dart, Elixir, Erlang, Go, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Lua, Objective-C, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, Rust, Scala, Swift, … and plenty more. TOML thinks all config files should support comments. There are four ways to express strings: basic, multi-line basic, literal, and multi-line literal.
