40 About PyYAML
41 ============
42
43 YAML is a data serialization format designed for human readability and
44 interaction with scripting languages.  PyYAML is a YAML parser and
45 emitter for Python.
46
47 PyYAML features a complete YAML 1.1 parser, Unicode support, pickle
48 support, capable extension API, and sensible error messages.  PyYAML
49 supports standard YAML tags and provides Python-specific tags that allow
50 to represent an arbitrary Python object.
51
52 PyYAML is applicable for a broad range of tasks from complex
53 configuration files to object serialization and persistance.
