Hi Jonas,

Do you accept contributions directly to this repository? I have given yxf the ability to translate XLSForm into JSON and back, and would love to send this up for inclusion in yxf.

My use case for yxf is making the numerous Survey123-based XLSForm 'apps' I have carriage of much easier to maintain and version control. JSON is much easier for me to work with because these apps are so large.

Many thanks!

This sounds great! Feel free to open a pull request.

JSON isn't very much different from YAML. You could think of YAML as an extension of JSON, with some extra ways to quote strings and with a more line-based structure. Given that YAML parsers exist for most programming languages, I wonder if there really is a strong need for JSON? Could you maybe explain a bit why you prefer it to YAML?

Anyway, please don't let these questions discourage you. I'm happy to integrate your contributions.
