String Interpolation Part 1

String Interpolation Part 1: Pattern Matching and Parsing Explained

In this episode, we tackle the string interpolation challenge using the Javascript dollar-brace notation without creating new tokens. We'll break down the problem using a two-step solution: parsing the string and rewriting it as function calls. The process starts by building a grammar to decompose the string into parts, followed by recursive parsing to handle interpolation within the string. Learn how to handle simple string expressions and understand the intricacies of parsing through a manually-drawn parse tree and a detailed walk-through of each step.
