[Documentation] A short table providing an overview between Prism and Ripper
Hi,
Recently I read:
https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2023/11/12/ruby-3-3-0-preview3-released/
"Prism is production ready and actively maintained, you can use it in place of Ripper"
Would it be possible to add a table somewhere, be it on the main README, or the wiki, and provide a link to this table, that briefly mentions relevant stats and differences, advantages and disadvantages between prism and Ripper?
I don't mean this necessarily as an advertisement for prism, but simply what a semi-experienced developer may experience what the core differences may be, e. g. when to use prism or ripper, and why. The table does not need to mention everything, mind you - I am looking for a simple overview, on a first glance, and if then AFTERWARDS more questions may arise, then we can add links to the relevant subsections there. But the important first step would be to provide a quick insta-look overview between ripper and prism, so people can understand the differences better. Right now I don't really know the differences; I know a bit of ripper, but nothing about prism yet, so any initial points may be helpful. At any rate thank you for reading this request.
