Author here, kind of. Most parser combinators only deal with strings and streams of bytes, but they can also be used for transforming other kinds of data. I think they're pretty useful for working with stuff like JSON or XML and I'd like to see more parser combinator libraries with support for these kinds of data structures. What I tried to do in the post is give names to the different kinds of basic blocks that are needed for parsing all these different kinds of data. I'm more or less using Alexis King's definition of "parsing" here, as described in this post: https://lexi-lambda.github.io/blog/2019/11/05/parse-don-t-validate/ https://lexi-lambda.github.io/blog/2019/11/05/parse-don-t-va...
