System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Explain tree-sitter's parsing model and node classification to clarify CST vs AST in concrete syntax trees.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clarifies how tree-sitter represents syntax trees (CST vs AST) and distinguishes named and anonymous nodes.
  • Explains fields vs kinds and how ast-grep maps to tree-sitter internals.
  • Use case: debugging AST matching issues and navigating parse trees during language tooling development.

Quick Start

Explain how to identify named vs unnamed nodes in a tree-sitter CST and how to map them to ast-grep concepts.
