An extension to Lark that generates a Javascript standalone

Project description

Lark.js - a port of the Lark parsing toolkit to Javascript

Lark is a parsing toolkit for Python, built with a focus on ergonomics, performance and modularity.

With Lark.js, you create a fast Javascript parser from a grammar written for Lark.

The compiled Javascript modules include Lark's base classes and utilities, such as Tree, Transformer, and InteractiveParser.

Currently, only LALR(1) is supported. (Earley support is planned!)

Quick links
