Feature-wise, maybe. Not arguing the design. Simply the only implementation is in Java and it has a terrible API.

As a result: libraries that cross-compile to ScalaJS are in a mess and we have a new Typesafe Config wrapper library basically EVERY DAY.

Bottom line: intentions were good, result is a mess and in many cases the features of HOCON are not even necessary.

I have been putting config directly into Scala code for over a decade. No complaints!

Usually I need one input (e.g. an environment variable or checking hostname) to determine which of several code-based configs to use.
