 piegames | Stateful parsing is more annoying on backtracking, but the Nix language is almost LL1 and the two edge cases where it isn't can be handled manually | 15:39:52 |

 kloenk | I don't remember exactly. but IIRC it was titled as parser combinator which does some backtracking internally and tries to optimize everything as good as possible which just throwing compile time on it | 15:41:18 |
 helle (just a stray cat girl) | chumsky, what a name..... not a recipe for headaches there :P | 15:43:30 |
| kloenk | Oh there is also a library to bridge chumsky and logos for token based parsing. Apparently it’s utter shit and looks very AI generated | 16:05:33 |
