YAML Syntax

Basic Formatting

server: port: 8080 timeout: 30s database: url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb username: admin password: secretpassword

Multi-line Strings

Lists

features: - feature1 - feature2 - feature3

Common Issues

1. Indentation Errors

YAML relies on consistent indentation. Mix tabs and spaces will cause parsing failures.

2. Missing Colons

Every key-value pair requires a colon : after the key.

3. Incorrect Quoting

Special characters in strings need quotes unless using a block style syntax.
