Honestly I find all these different config languages either too much to learn or they get too unwieldy quickly.

I have arrived that I think using typescript to generate JSON as being the ultimate solution.

Easy JSON support, optional typing, you already know it, and adding reusable functions and libraries is understandable. Just prevent external node modules, and have a tool that takes a typescript file with a default export of some JSON and renders the JSON to a string on stdout.
