Yaml
files are created with yaml
and yml
file extensions, Both are the same in interpretation and syntax.
In Older versions of Windows, Extensions restricts to 3 letters like .yml
Nowadays, there is no OS system-level enforcement to have 3 letters in extensions.
Most of the yaml
users are using .yaml
as their preferred choice.
Conclusion
As long as the content inside yaml
and yml
follows the yaml.org syntax.
There is no value in the extension of yaml
or ‘yml`. Both perform the same in syntax and programming language interpretation.
