# Bun-flavored TOML [TOML](https://toml.io/) is a minimal configuration file format designed to be easy for humans to read. Bun implements a TOML parser with a few tweaks designed for better interoperability with INI files and with JavaScript. ### ; and # are comments In Bun-flavored TOML, comments start with `#` or `;` ```ini # This is a comment ; This is also a comment ``` This matches the behavior of INI files. In TOML, comments start with `#` ```toml # This is a comment ``` ### String escape characters Bun-flavored adds a few more escape sequences to TOML to work better with JavaScript strings. ``` # Bun-flavored TOML extras \x{XX} - ASCII (U+00XX) \u{x+} - unicode (U+0000000X) - (U+XXXXXXXX) \v - vertical tab # Regular TOML \b - backspace (U+0008) \t - tab (U+0009) \n - linefeed (U+000A) \f - form feed (U+000C) \r - carriage return (U+000D) \" - quote (U+0022) \\ - backslash (U+005C) \uXXXX - unicode (U+XXXX) \UXXXXXXXX - unicode (U+XXXXXXXX) ```
