A major undertake to introduce converting solidity code contracts into the AST representation.
What would AST bring onto the table:
- Better Error Reporting: With an AST, you can provide more detailed and precise error messages. For example, you can report exactly where in the source code a syntax error occurred.
- Code Analysis: An AST can be used to analyze the structure of Solidity code. This could be used to implement features like linting, code formatting, and static analysis.
- Code Transformation: An AST can be used to transform Solidity code. This could be used to implement features like code optimization, code generation, and refactoring tools.
- Improved Understanding of Code: An AST can help developers better understand the structure and flow of Solidity code. This can be especially useful when working with complex contracts.
- Interoperability: An AST can serve as a common data format for tools that work with Solidity code. This can make it easier to integrate solgo with other tools and libraries.
In general, an AST can provide a robust foundation for many advanced features and tools for working with Solidity code.
