Show HN: Mark 1.0, a notation that unifies JSON, HTML, JSX, XML, YAML, and more (marknotation.org)

Mark is a unified notation for both object and markup data, combining the best of JSON, HTML, and XML with a clean syntax and succinct data model.

I'm glad to announce the 1.0 Release of Mark. This release is just the start of a long journey to make web a better platform to store and exchange data.

Your feedback welcome!

The idea is cool, but in my opinion, the downside of many types of notation is the markup symbols, which are essentially useless, like they complicate the syntax with symbols, although everything worked without them anyway, I wanted them to solve this.
Dear author,

kudos! It's impressive to see so many rich scalar types supported under Mark, including: symbol, decimal number, datetime, binary, and even Element as a new container type. Excited to try this notation out!

Thank you.
