There is also the query API for treesitter, which makes it much easier to deal with treesitter as it provides easy pattern matching. You might want to consider using that to find the declarations.

[wherearemypants]

Bindings are for using a library from another language. Tree-sitter being a c library, it does not have c bindings.
But I can see how misleading not seeing a hyperlink for c can be :)

i unironically wrote my graduation thesis with tree sitter and stack graph, now i have Vietnam-style memories

[xhivo]

those are language bindings thats why c not listed

[Tawre]

It's written in C, so under heading "Language bindings" you will not find it, right? AKA C Programmers trolling C Programmers 😁

[HitMan]

Treesitter is following the naming and node structure based on the grammar rules defined in the C standard (which is pretty archaic). Node type of 'declaration' in that case would also include all variable declarations (globals in a header) but that wont matter if you're parsing a header file alone, except maybe in the case of something like an stb header that has definitions and local variables also as part of the the header file

This is an incredible resource, wonderful, thank you so much, !

1:01:29 ladies and gentlemen, I am sorry to announce, but tsoding died of ligma

I do web dev stuff and just started learning the c family, it’s just so satisfying watching someone acquire gorilla grip on a forrest filled with unknowns and burning qs. So neat knowing what happens when I use the little :TS* commands from neovim, and all the lights magically turn on

"People don't appreciate simplicity" - that sooo reall across many aspect of life 🤣

[monsieuralexandergulbu]

55:07 the obly language tsoding doesn't hate is non-existing one 😂

[mehdiboujid]

I would like to see an emacs showcase it s really nice seeing you navigate and edit that fast

[jamesnewman]

Really loved seeing both you and prime both diving into tree-sitter! I've used it for a bit of custom linting, and also loved how easy it was to use and even modify/write the grammar.

I used rust bindings btw ;)

[flleaf]

finished watching the vid. loved it when he sit all over the trees. truely a moment

[cariyaputta]

The screen is so bright I got flashbanged.

[ecosta]

What I love about Tsoding streams is how I don't feel alone and crazy when I realise how programming in 2023 is weird AF. Yes, life could be much simpler without those over-hyped languages/libraries with hundreds of layers of leaky abstractions and vendor locking. I loved how JAI "just worked" with GDB at 47:47 and I wish Java could do the same (since that's the language that is paying my bills).

this is the tree-sitter video of all time

Laughed pretty loudly at the fortnight joke

[drdca]

I think “fine” is also a reasonable term in addition to “granular”,
I guess “fine-grained” combines both?
