Language Designers Wanted

The Ruby gem Rattler is designed to make language design and recognition as simple and fun as possible. It’s nearly ready for a 1.0 release, but unfortunately I have so little time to work on it that progress is slow.

I’m looking for a few good Rubyists to join the team and help take this over the finish line, and beyond!

If you’ve ever wanted to design your own programming language, or even just implement a parser for an existing language in Ruby, and found other tools to be difficult to understand and use, Rattler is for you!

If you’d like to be part of making Rattler the language design tool of choice, message me on twitter: @jarhart

Thanks!

This looks like the best Ruby external-DSL PEG I’ve seen so far. It’s the first one I’ve seen that will do left recursion, and that’s exciting. Is there any way it can parse Fortran’s Hollerith constant?

You can use basic HTML markup (e.g. <a>) or Markdown.
