Embeddable Lisp Parser.\n1. Tool for learning (about Lisp, ASTs, Dialects, etc.)\n1. Modular API with documentation.\n\nEventual goals:\n1. Multiple Lisp Dialect support.\n1. Plug and play Interpreters.\n\n## Requirements\n\n1. Unix-based machine (currently most dev happens on Ubuntu 16.04)\n1. [bazel](https://bazel.build/) (build tool)\n1. GCC Compiler (5.4.0)\n1. GNU Make 4.1\n\nOption Dev Dependencies:\n1. graphviz + xdot (if you want to visualize build graph)\n    ```bash\n    sudo apt update \u0026\u0026 sudo apt install graphviz xdot\n    ```\n\n## AST Serializers\nYali aims to be a tool to learn about Lisp and ASTs. Hence it provides serializers that output AST in different form.\n\n### Graphviz\n\n`(+ 4 (- 6 5) (+ 2 3))` translates to graphviz language\n\n```\ndigraph G {\n    1[label=\"+\"]\n    2[label=\"4\"]\n    3[label=\"-\"]\n    4[label=\"6\"]\n    5[label=\"5\"]\n    6[label=\"+\"]\n    7[label=\"2\"]\n    8[label=\"3\"]\n    1 -\u003e 2\n    1 -\u003e 3\n    1 -\u003e 6\n    3 -\u003e 4\n    3 -\u003e 5\n    6 -\u003e 7\n    6 -\u003e 8\n}\n```\n\nwhich could be used with tools like [Webgraphviz](http://www.webgraphviz.com/) to get a graphic like\n\n![graphviz](/images/graphviz.png)\n\n### Markdown Level Table\n`(+ 4 (- 6 5) (+ 2 3))` translates to markdown table\n\n```\n| Level | Nodes |\n|------|------|\n| 1 | + |\n| 2 | 4 - + |\n| 3 | 6 5 2 3 |\n```\n\nwhich renders on Markdown documents like\n\n| Level | Nodes |\n|------|------|\n| 1 | + |\n| 2 | 4 - + |\n| 3 | 6 5 2 3 |\n\n### Array Square\nPreferred often for [lightweight parsers](http://norvig.com/lispy.html).\n\n`(+ 4 (- 6 5) (+ 2 3))` translates to `[+, 4, [-, 6, 5], [+, 2, 3]]`\n\n## Contributing\nYes, please!\n\n- Suggest features and report bugs on the [issue tracker](https://github.com/scriptnull/yali/issues)\n- Refactor code to remove memory leaks\n- Write more tests\n- Code review to help improve the existing code\n\nIf you need help, feel free to contact [me](https://vishnubharathi.codes/).\n\n## Artwork\nYali is a [mythical creature portrayed as part lion, part elephant and part horse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yali_(mythology)) - this acted as the inspiration for the artwork.\n\nYali's artwork was designed and created by [Vasanth Selvam](https://dribbble.com/11CS103) and is licensed under a \u003ca rel=\"license\" href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/\"\u003eCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License\u003c/a\u003e.
