Key Features of Pkl
Pkl is a programming language that adopts a key-value structure, inspired by JSON, to facilitate a streamlined approach. This design choice sets Pkl apart from traditional programming languages, which rely on imperative instructions.
One of the key benefits of this approach is that Pkl is highly compatible with a variety of other popular configuration file formats, such as JSON, XML, and YAML property lists. Making it easier for developers to generate static configuration files that can be easily shared and used across different platforms and programming languages.
Despite being primarily designed as a configuration tool, Pkl can be much more than that. It already has support available for Java, Kotlin, Swift, and Go. Pkl aims to become safe, easy, and enjoyable.
