What is a YAML file?
YAML (YAML Ain’t Markup Language) is a human-readable data serialization format. It’s often used for configuration files, data exchange, and application settings, especially in software development and DevOps workflows.
YAML supports complex data structures with indentation and simple syntax. It is popular for defining settings in tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
How to open YAML files
YAML files can be opened with any plain text editor such as Notepad++, VS Code, or Sublime Text. Many IDEs also provide syntax highlighting and validation for YAML files.
