About
STXT is an indentation-based text format for documents that supports namespaces and schemas defined in the same language, with no closing tags and no escape characters, aiming to be simple enough for people to write by hand while still parsing securely and reliably for machines. Unlike XML it has no entity expansion or external resource references, and unlike YAML or TOML every value stays plain text.
Why it made the leaderboard
STXT offers a schema-capable, escape-character-free document format with a real toolchain (CLI, multi-language parsers, editor support) rather than just a spec proposal, positioned between XML's verbosity and YAML/TOML's ambiguity.
