This is a parser for a JSON-like data format. It was adapted from: https://github.com/airportyh/jsonr, but has since taken on features that specific to the needs of the time traveling debugger project. These features include:
- Heap references that look like
^12345. - Immutable object references that look like
*12345. - Object and array tags that look like
<Tuple>[1, 2, 3]or<Point>{ "x": 1, "y": 2 }.
The code was inpired by the functional parsing style described in this Computerphile episode.
