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

Over at #BABLR we got #Astro rendering #CSTML documents so bablr can handle the syntax highlighting 😏

New look on the #BABLR homepage courtesy of a community memeber! I love watching #OSS work in real life!

Thinking about moving the #BABLR source code over to https://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: https://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.

Updates to the #BABLR playground! The grammar box now features syntax highlighting and line numbers! Happy New Year everyone!

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! https://bablr.org/experiments/playground

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

Big news! Massive success tonight as I got the first full parse to run in dev grammar building playground. It is rough but everything is working!

#BABLR is finally up on Open Collective! https://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
