{"library":"parse-framework","title":"Parse Framework","description":"Parse Framework was an initiative designed to provide a universal solution for lexing and parsing various language syntaxes, aiming to simplify the creation of tools like linters, formatters, and compilers. The package reached its last known stable version, `2.5.6`, before development under this name ceased. The project has since been officially deprecated and rebranded as 'Sparser'. Users of `parse-framework` are strongly advised to migrate to the `Sparser` package for ongoing maintenance, feature enhancements, bug fixes, and security updates, as `parse-framework` will not receive any further development. Its effective release cadence is now zero, making `Sparser` the active successor for all parsing-related needs that this framework aimed to address. Its key differentiator was its ambitious goal to be a comprehensive, 'parse everything' solution.","language":"javascript","status":"deprecated","last_verified":"Tue Apr 21","install":{"commands":["npm install parse-framework"],"cli":null},"imports":["import { Parser } from 'parse-framework';","import { Lexer } from 'parse-framework';","import { parse as ParseFunction } from 'parse-framework';"],"auth":{"required":false,"env_vars":[]},"quickstart":{"code":"// IMPORTANT: 'parse-framework' is deprecated.
