 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 |
 rosssmyth | I've written several parsers in Rust and TBH for best error handling recursive descent will always win. | 16:26:03 |
| rosssmyth | Chumsky is my favorite library though | 16:26:13 |

| rosssmyth | Pratt parsing is nice | 16:26:41 |

| rosssmyth | Why do you need a library for that? | 16:27:42 |
| rosssmyth | They integrate just fine | 16:28:05 |
| kloenk | Friend looked at the lib for it and was very unhappy. Not looked myself into it. Mostly happy with logos and hand rolled conversion into rowan | 16:28:48 |
| rosssmyth | Yeah my latest project has a lexer that is just a copy of Rustc's lexer with my tokens in it, ungrammar for the cst data structures, and then hand-rolled parser. | 16:29:58 |
| rosssmyth | Logos is cool though | 16:30:09 |
| rosssmyth | Used it before | 16:30:14 |
