Hello,

What's the file extension for DOAP?

kjetilk commented 2 years ago

DOAP is expressed in terms of RDF and RDF can be expressed in a number of different syntaxes. For historical reasons, it was originally expressed in XML, I guess you saw .xml and .xrdf back in the day.

We weren't really big fans of XML though, so other syntaxes were developed. Most common today are Turtle where .ttl is recommended, or JSON-LD, where .jsonld is recommended.
