I recently ripped out HCL support from my side project in favour of json. I am planning to write some support code in Nickel (types, schema, functions) to help with the verboseness of json.
Nickel was among the other languages that popped up in my search, but I sadly didn't have enough time to deep dive in.
I'm also on the verge of experimenting with switching out the HCL to something else for my homelab setup. It currently uses terraform and nomad, and it's fine, but I always have a feeling there should be something more ergonomic.

Thanks for this, it was instructive. Note, there's https://nickel-lang.org/ too.
