'''YAMLScript''' is a new programming language that uses YAML as its syntax. It is a complete, functional, general purpose language, but can also be easily embedded in YAML files to make them dynamic at load time. Most existing YAML files and all JSON files are already valid YAMLScript programs. YAMLScript has a compiler/interpreter CLI program called <code>ys</code> and will soon be available as a libyamlscript.so binding module in 42 programming languages.
==Installing YAMLScript==

curl -s https://yamlscript.org/install-ys | PREFIX=$HOME bash
