Summary
Knowing how to create domain-specific languages (DSLs) can give you a huge productivity boost. Instead of writing code in a general-purpose programming language, you can first build a custom language tailored to make you efficient in a particular domain. The key is understanding the common patterns found across language implementations. “Language Design Patterns” identifies and condenses the most common design patterns, providing sample implementations of each. The pattern implementations …

Critics Review
”“Throw away your compiler theory book! Terence Parr shows how to write practical parsers, translators, interpreters, and other language applications using modern tools and design patterns. Whether you’re designing your own DSL or mining existing code for bugs or gems, you’ll find example code and suggested patterns in this clearly written book about all aspects of parsing technology.”“–Guido van Rossum, Creator of the Python language
”“This text is excellent. The exposition plus the examples makes otherwise complex ideas very clear and accessible. Well done!”“–Tom Nurkkala, Associate Professor, Computer Science and Engineering, Taylor University
