yaml12: Fast 'YAML' 1.2 Parser and Formatter
A fast, correct, safe, and ergonomic 'YAML' 1.2 parser and generator written in 'Rust'. Convert between 'YAML' and simple 'R' objects with full support for multi-document streams, tags, anchors, and aliases. Offers opt-in handlers for custom tag behavior and round-trips common 'R' data structures. Implements the 'YAML' 1.2.2 specification from the 'YAML' Language Development Team (2021) <https://yaml.org/spec/1.2.2/>. Proudly supported by Posit.
