The pest book is finally complete now! 🎆 (sort of) · pest-parser pest · Discussion #1105

For ages, the pest book would end with the unfinished "Final project: Awk clone (WIP)" chapter. The plan for this chapter was proposed by @wirelyre a long time ago: pest-parser/book#5 (comment) One...

I aimed to keep it in line with the “demonstration of the Rust ecosystem” goal, so it can also be a great introduction to Rust for beginners who are looking for a fun project to work on. It’s not perfect, but that’s part of the fun! It leaves room for potential language extensions (to make the AWK clone more complete) and optimizations up to the reader as a follow-up.

      I’m not sure why this surprises you. MIT OR Apache is standard for Rust libraries.

      Not everyone wants to copyleft their code. People write these libraries with different goals in mind, and sometimes someone wants to use their own library in their own closed source project.

      I know, it’s pretty awesome right? It’s one of the highlights of the community in my opinion.
