CFF is a standard format for the citation of software proposed by Stephan Druskat et. al. (see references below). CFF-compliant files are stored in files named CITATION.cff.
CITATION.cff files are plain text files with human- and machine-readable citation information for software. Code developers can include them in their repositories to let others know how to correctly cite their software.
