Show HN: A novel markup language for lists – Describe

4 points

2 years ago

Describe Markup Language is a markup language for writing lists that I have developed over the past 2 years. It is based on ANTLR 4.13 and the compiler is coded in C#, and can be consumed in .net projects, ran from the Windows command line, or hosted as a microservice on the Amazon Cloud (AWS). Or more officialy:

Describe is a markup language designed to write and maintain complex data lists that are compiled on demand to various formats, such as html, xml, sql and json. It is simple to use, intuitive and easy to master. Describe is readily extendible - implementing support for new target languages or customizing the transpilation process is straightforward, making it adaptable to a wide range of projects.

I need this markup as a part of another project, but it is cool on its own, and since v1.0-beta of the compiler rolled out, I've figured - "why not share it around with people?"
