I am fed up with config languages where indentation matters or which require strange syntax to support a few levels of nested maps or require a manual to write a few lines of config.

I was dreaming of a config language which is as simple as JSON but also has a few niceties so it's not a pain to read/write it. This is what I came up with.

The golang implementation of the language is here: https://github.com/yuce/go-jacl The language grammar is in ANTLR4, so it should be easy to add support for other languages.

Hopefully this is useful to someone else.
