Just https://ddot.it

ddot.it is a minimal, human-writable text syntax for typed knowledge graphs, created and maintained by Calpano (the same author behind the graphinout.com converter and the connected-json project, Connected JSON). Rather than defining a standalone document format with headers or brackets, ddot.it is designed to be sprinkled directly into existing files and prose. Reader implementations exist for Markdown, AsciiDoc, HTML, XML, YAML, Java, plain text, PowerPoint, web pages, and email, so the same triples can live inline wherever the source content already lives.

The data model is triples of subject, predicate, and object. The core line is written aaa .. bbb.. ccc, meaning subject aaa has relation bbb to object ccc; the double-dot .. separators are the only structural markers. An untyped link uses four dots, aaa .... ccc. Consecutive statements about the same subject can drop it and begin with ..bbb.. ccc, and per-statement metadata is appended after a double comma `
