verified May 24, 2026

Poyo is a lightweight YAML parser for Python (current version 0.5.0). It focuses on parsing a chosen subset of the YAML format, primarily designed for configuration files like those used by cookiecutter. It explicitly does not support deserialization of arbitrary Python objects, YAML serialization, or JSON compatibility. The project is in maintenance mode with infrequent updates, with the last release in July 2019, but it remains functional for its intended scope.
