About YAML and JSON
YAML (.yaml) is a data format. Converting it to JSON (.json) is useful when you need a format that is more widely supported, easier to edit, or smaller in size. DocumentBuddy runs the conversion server-side using battle-tested open-source tools so the output matches what you would get from a desktop application.
