A UTF-8 char-oriented, zero-copy, text and code scanning library.
This crate implements a UTF-8 [char]-based text [Scanner], which includes
various methods for scanning a string slice, as well as backtracking capabilities,
which can be used to implement lexers for tokenizing text or code.
Scanning extensions for existing languages and formats have already been implemented, such as for Rust, C, Python, CSS, SCSS, JSON, JSON with Comments, and many more.
For examples of lexers implemented using [Scanner], see the [any-lexer crate],
which implements lexers for e.g. Rust, C, Python,
CSS, SCSS, JSON, JSON with Comments,
and many more.
