# Description this PR - moves the documentation from `lib.rs` to `README.md` while still including it in the lib file, so that both the [crates.io page](https://crates.io/crates/nuon) and the [documentation](https://docs.rs/nuon/latest/nuon/) show the top-level doc - mention that comments are allowed in NUON - add a JSON-NUON example - put back the formatting of NOTE blocks in the doc # User-Facing Changes # Tests + Formatting # After Submitting |

Support for the NUON format.
The NUON format is a superset of JSON designed to fit the feel of Nushell. Some of its extra features are
- trailing commas are allowed
- commas are optional in lists
- quotes are not required around keys or any bare string that do not contain spaces
- comments are allowed, though not preserved when using [
from_nuon]
Example
below is some data in the JSON format
{
"name": "Some One",
"birth": "1970-01-01",
"stats": [
2544729499973429198,
687051042647753531,
6702443901704799912
]
}
and an equivalent piece of data written in NUON
{
name: "Some One", # the name of the person
birth: "1970-01-01", # their date of birth
stats: [ # some dummy "stats" about them
2544729499973429198,
687051042647753531,
6702443901704799912, # note the trailing comma here...
], # and here
} # wait, are these comments in a JSON-like document?!?!
