The project is in its early stages: contributions are welcome and
|
||
|
would be **very** helpful, but the project is not *yet* optimized for
|
||
|
contributors. Moreover, it is doubly experimental, so there's no
|
||
|
guarantee that any work here would reach production. That said, here
|
||
|
are some arias where contributions would be **especially** welcome:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Designing internal data structures: RFC only outlines the
|
||
|
constraints, it's an open question how to satisfy them in the
|
||
|
optimal way. See `ARCHITECTURE.md` for current design questions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Porting libsyntax parser to libsyntax2: currently libsyntax2 parses
|
||
|
only a tiny subset of Rust. This should be fixed by porting parsing
|
||
|
functions from libsyntax one by one.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Writing validators: by design, libsyntax2 is very lax about the
|
||
|
input. For example, the lexer happily accepts unclosed strings. The
|
||
|
idea is that there should be a higher level visitor, which walks the
|
||
|
syntax tree after parsing and produces all the warnings. Alas,
|
||
|
there's no such visitor yet :( Would you like to write one? :)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Creating tests: it would be tremendously helpful to read each of
|
||
|
libsyntax and libsyntax2 parser functions and crate a small separate
|
||
|
test cases to cover each and every edge case.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Building stuff with libsyntax2: it would be really cool to compile
|
||
|
libsyntax2 to WASM and add *client side* syntax validation to rust
|
||
|
playground!

Do take a look at the issue tracker, and try to read other docs in
|
||
|
this folder.
