suggest `parseTest` rather than `regularParse`
i was following this guide and i rolled out my simplified versions of the parsing help functions you have here. eventually i found out that i just rewrote parseTest
.
by suggesting the users to test with parseTest
from the beginning you make the guide way easier to follow because we wouldn't need to clone, compile, etcetera
Thanks for the suggestion, I like the sound of it. I want to break it into 2 different ideas:
-
see if it is reasonable to allow people to follow the guide without having to clone it. I never thought about this, but since it (surprisingly) seems like it might be not too much of a change, it's worth looking into
-
using parseTest for all the parsing examples instead of the custom test parsing functions. I think this is a good idea also. I will look into it.
