See also OpenRewrite:

And i assume any large organisation running a monorepo has some vaguely equivalent tooling for making mass changes. Have any of them published about that?

This is a business that I suspect may not survive BABLR.

> Moderne's build plugins allow for LSTs to be serialized to disk. This makes the process of consuming and editing large quantities of them much more efficient. OpenRewrite's build plugins, on the other hand, store everything in memory and need to be reparsed every time there is a change.

So yeah I'm giving away open standards to everyone for free that do the thing they expect people to pay them for...

    What's BABLR?

      > The next-gen LR parser framework for creating elegant and efficient language tools

      > BABLR is a new kind of thing that does not quite fit into any category of things that has existed before it. In purpose it is made to be an instrument of code literacy -- a unified toolchain for software developers that supports a new generation of richly visual interfaces for coding. In form BABLR is a collection of scripts and virtual machines written in plain Javascript that run in almost any modern web browser. BABLR is also a community and an ecosystem, including a small but rapidly growing collection of ready-to-use parsers for popular languages.
