The Pkl Team has introduced Pkl, a new open-source programming language specifically designed for creating configurations. Pkl aims to bridge the gap between static configuration languages and general-purpose programming languages, offering a solution that combines the simplicity and readability of the former with the expressiveness and flexibility of the latter. The language includes features like classes, functions, conditionals, and loops, allowing for robust and reusable configuration noscripts. Pkl also emphasizes safety with built-in validation, scalability for various use cases, and a pleasant development experience through excellent IDE integrations.
