On: Jsonnet – The Data Templating Language

[mike_hearn]

Thanks. HOCON is a superset of JSON so you can write JSON if you like. There's also a spec:

You can also convert HOCON to JSON and back. I find it a lot easier to work with configs when you can get rid of superfluous syntax, can use comments, substitutions, include files etc. But you don't have to use those.
