...It includes an expression syntax that allows basic inline computation and, with support from the calling application, the use of variables and functions for more dynamic configuration languages. HCL provides a set of constructs that can be used by a calling application to construct a configuration language. The application defines which attribute names and nested block types are expected, and HCL parses the configuration file, verifies that it conforms to the expected structure, and returns high-level objects that the application can use for further processing.

...It aims to be easy to use for anyone but powerful enough for those who need it. The motivation for choosing Lua was that it's simpler and better to use than an old shell script. It's fine for basic interactive shell uses, but that's the only place Hilbish has shell script; everything else is Lua and aims to be infinitely configurable. Hilbish is configured and scripted in the Lua programming language. This removes all the old, ugly things about Shell script and introduces everything good about Lua, including other languages (Fennel, Lua derivatives). ...

TySON (TypeScript Object Notation) is a subset of TypeScript, chosen to be useful as an embeddable configuration language that generates JSON. You can think of TySON as JSON + comments + types + basic logic using TypeScript syntax. TySON files use the .tson extension. The goal is to make it possible for all major programming languages to read configurations written in TypeScript using native libraries. That is, a go program should be able to read TySON using a go library, a rust program should be able to read TySON using a rust library, and so on. ...

...It combines an ebook/zh directory with written chapters and a src directory that holds the corresponding source code, so readers can move seamlessly between theory and practice. The goal is to help developers go beyond basic syntax and actually build real applications, drawing inspiration from similar “projects” collections in other languages. It emphasizes hands-on learning, using many small, focused examples to demonstrate real-world usage patterns, not just contrived snippets. The project is also community-oriented, with donation links, forums, and a dedicated QQ group for discussion and feedback. ...
