Not a book, but a nice way to start with the task is to build up a simple JSON parser using recursive descent; This [1] is a great tutorial to start with. Personally, I followed up with a standards compliant JSON parser of my own, in Python [2], and later ported it into a larger golang codebase. Practically building up multiple JSON parsers taught me to build my own DSL, using recursive descent parsing. My path admittedly is quite non-standard and idiosyncratic, but was way more fun than going through a textbook :) [1]: https://www.booleanworld.com/building-recursive-descent-parsers-definitive-guide/ https://www.booleanworld.com/building-recursive-descent-pars...
