I think it's quite similar to the syntax of HCL. You might be interested in using emacs-hcl-mode for editing HOCON files.

I'm fairly certain there isn't an Emacs major mode for HOCON. But it looks like it's similar to JavaScript, so you can make .hocon load as JavaScript by adding this to your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.hocon\\'" . javascript-mode))
