Show HN: Eno – A lightning fast, user-friendly YAML/TOML alternative

eno [1] - A modern plaintext language w/ libraries [2] for JavaScript, Python, Ruby & soon more!

We migrated a big relational research database to a file-based solution - requirements were:

- Super fast and easy editability for users

- Highest performance for parsing/validating >10K documents on every user change.

Our trials with YAML/TOML showed us that we wanted something both faster [3][4] and easier [4], something tailored for file-based content management ... and after months of research & development it's now publicly available (under MIT license) for everyone!

Last but not least I also want to mention eno's document introspection capabilities - with a few lines of code you can build intelligent relational suggestion UIs as shown in [4] below.

PS. Your input for the Roadmap is highly welcome - what do you think should be in the next releases? More languages? (If so, which? Currently in progress: Rust/PHP, Currently planned: Go/Java) Additional IDE/editor support? (Currently supported: Atom/VSCode/Sublime) Or something else entirely? :) Looking forward to your feedback!
