GramFix Grammar Pack Service
Continuously maintained Tree-sitter-compatible WASM grammars for tool builders
- Problem
- Anyone building linting, highlighting, or static analysis tools keeps getting bitten by Tree-sitter grammars: stale upstream grammars, hand-patching, and parse failures on new languages or the flood of AI-generated code. One maintainer got so tired of patching grammars that they wrote a whole parsing framework, which shows how orphaned this pain is.
- Solution
- A CI-verified, Tree-sitter-compatible WASM grammar feed with ongoing upstream tracking and commercial support, plus patch templates and a compatibility matrix so tool authors upgrade by version instead of maintaining forks.
- Users
- Indie developers and small teams building linting, highlighting, or static analysis tools
- MVP
- WASM grammar packs for 10 mainstream languages; per-version changelogs with breaking changes; drop-in npm package; patch templates and compatibility matrix; email update subscription
- Revenue
- Pack update subscription (one-time for individuals, annual for teams); commercial support and custom grammars as add-ons
- Why now
- AI-generated code has exploded parsing volume and grammar maintenance cost, while most grammars are maintained part-time by volunteers who need paid support
