   How does it compare to teable[1], which is a postgres + airtable fusion? I can see that Google Sheet has higher availability but fewer builtin dashboards. [1] https://teable.io/

   Is it possible to combine n-gram and AST to dump a better indexing? Take `sourceCode.toString()` as an example, the AST can dump it to `sourceCode` and `toString`. A further indexer can break `sourceCode` to `source` and `code`. For ast dum

   Hi! This is Grit's release news so please allow me to only briefly answer your question. > nested syntax sg does not support it natively now and you need API to extract relevant text out. For update code, I recommend first read the

   Congrats from ast-grep team! Nice job Morgante! GritQL shares a lot of common ground with ast-grep, which is also a code rewriter based on tree-sitter. Interested folks may wonder about their difference. The key difference is that their sur

   Hi! Thanks for trying out ast-grep. I have been improving ast-grep's documentation since the release of the project. It is arguably not that good/abundant for resources compared to eslint/babel. But it has improved a lot (say

    Hi, thanks for giving ast-grep a try. Pattern code must be valid code that tree-sitter can parse.[0] You can use this syntax `try { $$$CODE } catch ($$$E) { $$$HANDLE }`[1] [0] https://ast-grep.github.io/guide/pattern-s

    Provable correctness means you have to model your source and target languages. And then translate the source model to the target model. It is theoretically possible, but in practice, modeling an industry language is way too much work. Some

    Why I think semgrep is a security tool different from ast-grep: * Semgrep is security focused. It has many advanced static analysis features in its core product, such as dataflow analysis, symbolic propagation, and semantic equivalence, all

    Hi, ast-grep author here. This is a great question and I asked this in the first place before I started the hobby project. TLDR; I designed ast-grep to be on different tracks than semgrep. Semgrep is for security and ast-grep is for develop

    Thank ekidd for your kind words! ast-grep author here. This is a hobby project and mainly focuses on developers' daily job like search and linting. Appreciate you like it! Semgrep's vulnerability scanning is much more advanced, m

    treesitter gives us a uniform interface to parse and manipulate code, which is awe-inspiring work. I wish tree-sitter could have more contributors to the core library. It still has a lot of improvement space. Say, like performance. tree-sit

    Hey morgante, nice to meet you again! Indeed YAML is a compromise between expressiveness and easy-learning. Grit did a great job for providing advanced code manipulation!

    Hey paulg, ast-grep author here! This is something I also want to do in ast-grep! ast-grep prints the surrounding lines around matches but they are not aware of which function/scope the matches are in. May I ask how you do the scope d

    Native parsers used in JavaScript are not always faster due to extra work across languages. Avoiding these overheads and using multi-core are crucial for performance.

    Thanks! tree-sitter is highly useful but hard to use directly. I hope this tool can help tree-sitter be more used!
