@hackage syntactic1.0

This library provides:

• Generic representation and manipulation of abstract syntax

• Composable AST representations (partly based on Data Types à la Carte [1])

• A collection of common syntactic constructs, including variable binding constructs

• Utilities for analyzing and transforming generic abstract syntax

• Utilities for building extensible embedded languages based on generic syntax

• A small proof-of-concept implementation of the embedded language Feldspar [2] (see the Examples directory)

For details, see the paper "A Generic Abstract Syntax Model for Embedded Languages" (ICFP 2012, http://www.cse.chalmers.se/~emax/documents/axelsson2012generic.pdf).

The maturity of this library varies between different modules. The core part (Language.Syntactic) is rather stable, but many of the other modules are in a much more experimental state.
