TOML (Tom's Obvious Minimal Language) and JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) are both widely used formats for storing and transferring structured data.
JSON is a lightweight data interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write. It is primarily composed of key-value pairs and arrays, making it ideal for representing hierarchical data structures. JSON is commonly used for transmitting data between a server and a web application due to its simplicity and versatility.
On the other hand, TOML prioritizes human-friendliness: It aims for simple configuration files that are easy to understand because they use clear and intuitive language.
