C++ has been a headache to deal with throughout the ecosystem and for several downstream projects. It is difficult to get working with WASM, and induces potential issues with compilation on Windows. It has been proven that writing scanners in C is a much better alternative, and is the recommended way to write scanners now. C++ support will likely be removed in 0.21.0 |

tree-sitter
Tree-sitter is a parser generator tool and an incremental parsing library. It can build a concrete syntax tree for a source file and efficiently update the syntax tree as the source file is edited. Tree-sitter aims to be:
- General enough to parse any programming language
- Fast enough to parse on every keystroke in a text editor
- Robust enough to provide useful results even in the presence of syntax errors
- Dependency-free so that the runtime library (which is written in pure C) can be embedded in any application
