gloo VS pest

In the rust world I’m learning yew and trying to contribute to gloo_net.

What about adding it to gloo?

Hoping to get this PR finished up and merged. It's mostly done, just need a second set of eyes to make sure I didn't fuck something up

Gloo is in need of an icon. See gloo#143 for more details.

Yew and Gloo

See gloo#18

I've been using it for keyboard and mouse event handling in a wasm project I've been working on and it's quite helpful. There's a proposal that would make this even better.

And some related parser tools: - https://github.com/kevinmehall/rust-peg - https://github.com/pest-parser/pest - https://github.com/lalrpop/lalrpop

I had recently completed the first year of my Computer Science class at school and will begin my second year soon. My schools' class forces the use of Java programming language, and I absolutely hated it. So, over the course of a little less than a month, I wrote my own programming language, in Rust (objectively best programming language), using pest, to be as similar to Rust as possible, but compiling to Java.

I second pest.rs. Using it is fairly intuitive and there's also a live playground on their website which is great for quickly developing and testing your AST (abstract syntax tree) parser for whatever language you're implementing.

This is where you'll run into trouble. People who write parsing-related Rust crates generally write things like pest that expect their syntax to be defined completely at compile time so the parser can be run through the compiler's optimizers for best performance.

Give https://pest.rs a try.

For now I have used pest to generate an AST that borrows from the given input. But if I can manage to make the parser generic over the return type it may be worth a refactoring.
