Really? I admittedly don't know a whole lot about avro, but everything I've been able to find about avro schemas uses json.

Edit: I found it: https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/idl-language/

Yeah JSON is usually the way it's written. IIRC the IDL even lacks some features of JSON.

But the fact it exists means at least some people find JSON verbose.
