At then end of the day on Friday, #BABLR successfully parsed the first chunk of our source code. Transpiled from #BABEL, a 900 ish lines of ugly ES3. A basic version of paneditor will be coming soon! #programming #js #texteditor

Hey language/IDE nerds, check out Bablr-lang by @stirlhoss, I resonate with the mission

The BABLR organization's mission is to build a new ecosystem of next-generation developer tools to radically raise computer code literacy around the world. It aims to do this by creating a common "math-y" system for representing code to that unlocks new coding workflows for all developers while changing the way that language and tooling authors collaborate to deliver rich IDE functionality.

A lot of the specifics are a beyond my pay-grade but #LSP and #treesitter have really moved the needle in this space and I think innovation is better than a mono-culture. Love that people are making cool things, #bablr!

Thinking about moving the #BABLR source code over to radicle.xyz/

Has anyone used it? any thoughts or experiences to share?

#BABLR should have some big releases coming up. I'm working on getting a tutorial together to help people get started with writing their own grammars. Also.... CSTML 1.0? perhaps...

#BABLR playground UPDATE! Playground has a new url: bablr.org/playground The old link should also take redirect you there. I fixed the layout a bit and I added an option to put your own grammar into local storage.

Finished a feature on #BABLR today! The playground now includes select box for "matcher" that generates a dynamic list of productions from the grammar on the right. Check it out! bablr.org/experiments/playgrou

The earliest, most beta version of the bablr playground is live!

You should be able to evaluate various matcher types against our CSTML grammar and see an output immediately! It is rough but I am going to keep hacking on this in the coming weeks! #BABLR #OSS #software

#BABLR is finally up on Open Collective! opencollective.com/bablr

If you are interested in #treesitter like parsing and experimental IDE concepts please consider donating.

This has been a long-running and very ambitious project. A lot of the pieces are just now coming together after about 4 years of work. We will be publishing a playground soon that will allow you to build and debug grammars in the browser. Stay Tuned!

Working on adding json-like attributes to CSTML's syntax while still trying to get my head around the grammar system... Going to be a long afternoon
