| Lezer ("reader" in Dutch, pronounced pretty much as laser) is an | |
| incremental GLR parser intended for use in an editor or similar | |
| system, which needs to keep a representation of the program current | |
| during changes and in the face of syntax errors. | |
| It prioritizes speed and compactness (both of parser table files and | |
| of syntax tree) over having a highly usable parse tree—trees nodes are | |
| just blobs with a start, end, tag, and set of child nodes, with no | |
| further labeling of child nodes or extra metadata. | |
| This package contains the run-time LR parser library. It consumes | |
| parsers generated by | |
| [@lezer/generator](https://github.com/lezer-parser/generator). | |
| The parser programming interface is documented on [the | |
| website](https://lezer.codemirror.net/docs/ref/#lr). | |
| The code is licensed under an MIT license. | |
| This project was hugely inspired by | |
| [tree-sitter](http://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/). | |
