UCG is a universal grammar for configuration. UCG's goal is not to define a configuration format like JSON, YAML, or TOML. It is not intended to replace the other serialization formats. Instead it is intended to provide a common grammar for generating those formats.

    addr = "0.0.0.0",
    db = {
        host = db_confs.host_pool.addr,
        port = db_confs.host_pool.port,
        database = "myservicedb",
    },
    config_svc = consul_hosts.url,
};
