Feature / Question: go-tree-sitter dependency
Hi team,
I noticed that the project currently uses github.com/smacker/go-tree-sitter for syntax tree parsing. Since go-tree-sitter relies on CGO, cross-platform compilation (especially for darwin/arm64) becomes complicated.
I have a few questions:
- Is
go-tree-sitterstrictly required for Katana, or only for certain features? - Are there any alternative pure-Go libraries we could use instead of
go-tree-sitterto simplify cross-platform builds?
This would help in making snapshot builds and CI/CD pipelines simpler, without needing to configure CGO or cross-compilers.
Thanks!
Use Case
- Simplifying cross-platform builds (Windows → macOS/ARM)
- Avoiding CGO-related compilation issues
- Maintaining full functionality while reducing dependency complexity
