Comparison

How Coyaml compares to popular tools:

Dynaconf / OmegaConf / Hydra

Pros of Coyaml: - Minimal API surface; easy to adopt - Strong template engine (env/file/config/yaml) with recursive resolution - Framework‑agnostic DI via @coyaml and Annotated (no app wiring) - Pydantic conversion built‑in - Deterministic errors and simple merge rules

Where others are stronger: - Hydra: powerful composable overrides and rich ecosystem - OmegaConf: flexible typed configs and interpolation features - Dynaconf: many built‑in providers and integrations

Pick Coyaml when you want straightforward YAML + pragmatic power without a large framework.
