forward/backward/next/previous element against YAML?

Question

The lisp program is structured language, and one can execute C-M-f(forward-sexp) to pick the next sibling element. Similarly, C-M-b, C-M-u, C-M-d are defined; they can be used to move the cursor to backward/upward/down the current lisp element.

Nowadays, there are many occasions to edit YAML files. Since YAML file is also a structured language, I thought it would be nice if we could similar operation for moving around, against these files.

Question

When editing YAML files, can I move the cursor according to the current YAML element being pointed by the cursor, just like we'd go up/down/next/previous element in the lisp snippet?

Answer 1

This would be a feature of the major mode you use. AFAICT, the only yaml-mode I can find does not offer such functionality, sadly. Maybe indent-tools provides what you're looking for?
