A Data Modeling Programming Language

TreeCode is a little more than a markup language,tending toward a programming language. In fact, it can be used for aprogramming language. It is a way to model information and computationin an easy to read and write format, suitable for hierarchical notetaking and other means of capturing data down into structured form.

There are two types of TreeCode:

• TreeFlow: Simple tree structure, non-circular, expandedinterpolations. This is "simple form" of TreeCode, which can be usedto construct serializable data like JSON.
• TreeMesh: Code tree structure, possibly circular, linkedinterpolations. This is the "complex form" of TreeCode, which can beused to write complex code.

Upon parsing, we should be able to say whether or not the TreeCodepasses the threshold for being calledTreeFlow, otherwise it is bydefault consideredTreeMesh.

In principle, two separate parsers can be developed for these two forms,TreeFlow being optimized for not handling all the complex cases ofcircular reasoning and interpolation, just sticking to basic expandingdata structures like JSON.

Install thesyntax highlighterVSCode extension and get aworkin!

Tests pass for positive cases (pnpm test), but fail on some crazyerror cases it should handle nicely. So still have some work to do onmaking this robust, but it should parse the basic structures fine, justnot commplicated interpolation styles with nesting.
