DEP-11 is a YAML implementation of the AppStream Distro specification, which is primarily used by Debian and its derivatives. This document describes the DEP-11 YAML. All AppStream support libraries available today are able to read both the YAML and the XML specification.

If you want to use AppStream in your distribution, and are not based on Debian, please use the XML specification (unless you have strong reasons for preferring YAML). XML is the official format for AppStream Distro metadata.
</div></div></div><div class="para">
The DEP-11 YAML metadata can be validated for correctness using the <code class="command">dep11-validate</code> tool from the <a href="https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/appstream-dep11">AppStream DEP-11 utils</a>.

Take a look at <a class="xref" href="chap-DistroData.html#spec-asxml-filenaming">Section 3.1.2, “File naming and location”</a> for AppStream XML files. While the XML data belongs into the <code class="filename">xmls</code> subdirectory in <code class="filename">/usr/share/app-info</code> (or <code class="filename">/var/cache/app-info</code>), the YAML data is stored in the <code class="filename">yaml</code> subdirectory.
