Frequently Asked Questions

Why does YAML prohibit tab characters?▼

YAML uses whitespace indentation for block hierarchy. Tabs display inconsistently across different editors, so the YAML 1.2 standard strictly requires spaces.

Is my server configuration safe?▼

Yes. All formatting and validation happens 100% locally in your browser memory.
