Modern parser generator for C++ developers

Develop a modern, easy-to-use parser generator for C++ that supports LALR(1) grammars. Target C++ developers working on compilers and interpreters.

Why now

Existing parser generators for C++ are often outdated and difficult to use, creating demand for modern alternatives.

C++ developers working on compilers and interpreters need modern parser generators that are easy to use and integrate, but existing tools are often outdated or cumbersome.

Create a modern parser generator for C++ that supports LALR(1) grammars and includes features like clear error messages, easy integration, and good documentation.

Offer a freemium model with basic features free and advanced features behind a paywall. Target both individual developers and companies working on language implementations.

The MVP could support basic LALR(1) parsing with clear error messages. Add more advanced features and optimizations over time.

The biggest risk is competing with established parser generators that already have large user bases.
