Tree-sitter... oh, tree-sitter... I'm currently trying to convince myself to basically rewrite the whole thing in our Atom fork...

I’m confused - do you like it or not? I love the idea of it (and use something similar myself), but I haven’t used it yet.

@U3Y18N0UC Are you referring to a specific grammar or "tree-sitter as a project"?

Tree-sitter as a project

chrisoakman15:12:31

FWIW, I believe this is the most thorough tree-sitter grammar for Clojure: https://github.com/sogaiu/tree-sitter-clojure (which is not the grammar that I worked on)

mauricio.szabo15:12:52

Basically - Atom originally made the project, but as with all Atom-related things, it lagged behind other implementations. Now I need to rewrite the thing because node-tree-sitter does not works with newer Electron (>13)

mauricio.szabo15:12:05

So I'll need to use the WASM version, which breaks a lot of compatibility...

Also there is a #CTQ842QRF channel here 😁

chrisoakman15:12:17

I see; bummer.

mauricio.szabo20:12:14

Yes, but honestly, we had to change this anyway, considering that tree-sitter supports new stuff now that Atom don't

mauricio.szabo20:12:20

So... one more thing to do, I guess...

mauricio.szabo03:12:50

But at least I'll be knowledgeable enough to help anyone in need 😄
