About Treetop
Treetop was created in 2008 by Nathan Sobo. It was developed to provide a robust parsing library for Ruby, enabling developers to define grammars using Parsing Expression Grammar (PEG) syntax. The goal was to simplify the creation of interpreters, compilers, and domain-specific languages.
Strengths of Treetop include its expressive PEG syntax, ease of integration with Ruby, and flexibility in defining complex grammars. Weaknesses involve potential performance issues with large inputs and limited support for error recovery. Competitors include ANTLR, Ragel, and Parsec.
