I am absolutely overjoyed to announce the release of #KDL 2.0.0!! https://kdl.dev
It's a significant overhaul of the language to make it SO MUCH NICER in so many ways.
This is the culmination of over 3 years of work (4 if you count from before 1.0.0), by SCORES of contributors.
https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl/releases/tag/2.0.0
I want to give huge thanks to everyone who supported all of us through this, who jumped in and had some really amazing discussions weighing all sorts of interesting trade-offs.
The end result is absolutely not something any one person could've reasonably come up with.
I hope y'all enjoy it <3
As part of this release, several implementations have already launched with full support for v2.0.0, so you can try it now!
👉 #Rust #RustLang https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl-rs
👉 #C / #CPP / #Python https://github.com/tjol/ckdl
👉 #Elixir https://github.com/IceDragon200/kuddle
👉 #JavaScript / #TypeScript https://github.com/bgotink/kdl
👉 #Python https://github.com/tabatkins/kdlpy
KDL is already used in all sorts of projects, and by various folks as a DSL for their own small hobby things: https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl?tab=readme-ov-file#used-by
There are around 8k .kdl files out on GitHub, which is a lot considering it's usually a config language!
I fully expect this to be the last version of KDL ever released. We really really tried, but I don't think there's anything we can reasonably improve on.
From here on out, the language is in the (stable!) hands of the ecosystem.
Also, we're hoping to have GitHub syntax highlighting support soon!
(Boosts welcome!!)
