ast-grep VS Graphite

This article illustrates the usage of ast-grep, a tool designed to locate and substitute patterns in your codebase, towards easing your migration to React 19.

This looks great, thanks for building and sharing it.

Interested folks may also want to check out ast-grep:

ast-grep is a command-line tool that lets you search and transform code written in many programming languages using abstract syntax trees (ASTs). ASTs are data structures that capture the syntactic and semantic structure of source code. With ast-grep, you can write patterns as if you are writing ordinary code, and it will match all code that has the same syntactical structure. And if you need more power, you can use YAML, a rule system that allows you to write more sophisticated linting rules or code modifications.

I really like this - it means the tool is available to people with familiarity of any of those four distribution mechanisms.

You can also download pre-built binaries from their releases page: https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/releases/tag/0.14.2

On top of that, they offer API bindings for it in three different languages:

- Rust (not yet stable): https://docs.rs/ast-grep-core/latest/ast_grep_core/

- JavaScript/TypeScript: https://ast-grep.github.io/guide/api-usage/js-api.html

- Python: https://ast-grep.github.io/guide/api-usage/py-api.html

It's rare to see a tool/library offer this depth of language support out of the box.

Is there an open source library that does this? Maybe something on top of ast-grep

There is also Graphite (https://graphite.rs/) which, unlike Gimp, has a modern architecture and very ambitious goals (Blender for 2D basically).

If you're interested in either computational geometry, layout/packing/constraints, or functional programming language concepts, those are all the math-related concepts that we're currently interacting with for Graphite, a 2D vector graphics editor that's aiming to become the next Blender (but for 2D instead of 3D). If that sounds interesting, I'd love to help get you started if you want to join our Discord and I can explain the math-related work that we need to get done. Cheers!

Not sure which web-based spreadsheet app you're talking about, because there are many that do use these frameworks. Here's a PS/AI clone built with a Svelte frontend: https://graphite.rs

Wanted to contribute to a good Rust-based project last week, started searching and found a good Reddit thread featuring several great projects. Looked at and found Graphite. I liked the concept though I know almost nothing about graphic design.

I'm currently trying to decide on the SD server to deploy with Graphite, both for running locally (with Tauri desktop builds) and for us to host on a server for users.
