I asked GitHub Copilot the benefits to use yml:

Converting issue templates from Markdown (.md) to YAML (.yml) provides several benefits:

  • Standardization: YAML issue templates follow a standardized format that GitHub supports, ensuring consistency across different repositories.
  • Customization: YAML templates allow for more customization options, such as predefined labels, assignees, and issue forms, enhancing the issue creation experience.
  • Form Fields: YAML allows the creation of structured forms with specific fields, making it easier to collect relevant information from users.
  • Better UI: YAML templates are rendered as forms in the GitHub UI, which can be more user-friendly and intuitive compared to plain text Markdown templates.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the GitHub documentation on issue forms.
