The fileformat on disk should be human readable, but it need not be standardized. A natively available format that doesn't need an external library is preferred. Avoid developing your own format however if you can use an already existing one. If there is no existing format available pick one of: [[JSON]], [[S-Expressions]], [[YAML]], or [[wp:Comparison_of_data_serialization_formats|others]].
