Lark is a modern general-purpose parsing library for Python.

Lark focuses on simplicity and power. It lets you choose between two parsing algorithms:
Lark focuses on simplicity, power, and speed. It lets you choose between two parsing algorithms:

- Earley : Parses all context-free grammars (even ambiguous ones)! It is the default.
- LALR(1): Only LR grammars. Outperforms PLY and most if not all other pure-python parsing libraries.
- LALR(1): Only LR grammars. Outperforms PLY and most (if not all) other pure-python parsing libraries.

Both algorithms are written in Python and can be used interchangably with the same grammar (aside for algorithmic restrictions). See "Comparison to other parsers" for more details.

- Grammar composition (in cases that the tokens can reliably signify a grammar change)
- Parser generator - create a small parser, indepdendent of Lark, to embed in your project.
- Optimizations in both the parsers and the lexer
