Was there anything particularly wrong with json schema? Aside from being a validator and not a “language”.

https://json-schema.org

I just learned about Pkl, so take this with a grain of salt. JSON Schema and Pkl seem to have some overlap. But JSON schema is not specifically designed for handling configuration and Pkl supports other formats like YAML.

JSON schema supports YAML as well, no? That's because JSON and YAML are both essentially just different syntaxes for writing the same objects right?

[–] canpolat@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago

Possibly. My point is: despite having a common subset Pkl and JSON schema doesn't seem to be solving the same problems. But, I'm just learning about it, so I may just be wrong.
