What to use instead of JSON if the file needs to be filled in by hand?

Question

JSON

The user (far from programming, but a confident PC user) must manually fill in a file that contains tabular data, arrays, dictionary, etc.
In this case, the file must be readable. What format do you use for such cases?

Answer 1

yaml

Answer 2

JSON in this case is the most acceptable format, IMHO. You can try to fill in through the visual editor, the same www.jsoneditoronline.org

Answer 3

xml
