v_pdml

About

v_pdml is a custom implementation of the PDML (Practical Data and Markup Language) documentation standard in the V programming language. Think of it as a LISP-like alternative to Markdown which is less verbose than XML and more readable than JSON.

Features

• Support for parsing and generating PDML files.
• Easy-to-use API for working with PDML data.
• Flyweight recursive-descent parser implementation using io.Reader.

Most features of the PDML standard are supported. If there are any missing features that you would like to see, please open an issue and if possible, a pull request.
