As we are developing a list-oriented wiki, the benefits of developing a dedicated markup language to power this wiki became apparent - and so Describe was born. Soon we realized that the markup language can also be useful on its own, in some niche cases, so we decided to develop and release the language separately under a free license and share it with the community.
Describe is a markup language designed to write and maintain complex data lists that are compiled on demand to various formats, such as html, xml, sql and json. It is simple to use, intuitive and easy to master. Describe is readily extendible - implementing support for new target languages or customizing the transpilation process is straightforward, making it adaptable to a wide range of projects.
Built on a state of the art parsing platform such as ANTLR 4.13, Describe offers a robust grammar, although the compiler is currently in beta and some bugs are to be expected. It is available for free under the AGPL v3 license, but commercial licenses are negotiable as well.
