SQLON (SQL Object Notation) is an experimental language and toolchain that treats relational structure as the canonical representation of data.
- Relational-first normalisation
- Explicit schemas over inferred structure
- Canonical internal representation
- Human-readable and inspectable formats
- Simplicity over completeness
- Replacing JSON, XML, or CSV
- Schema-less data modelling
- Perfect round-tripping of source formats
- Production-grade guarantees (at this stage)
SQLON values clarity over flexibility. Features that increase expressiveness must justify their cost in complexity.
SQLON is an exploratory project. Breaking changes are expected. Learning and experimentation are first-class goals.
