# Purpose: to demonstrate how to build and render a parse tree for JSON
# language
require 'rley'  # Load the gem
require_relative 'json_lexer'

# Steps to render a parse tree (of a valid parsed input):
# 1. Define a grammar
# 2. Create a parser for that grammar
# 3. Tokenize the input
# 4. Let the parser process the input
# 5. Generate a parse tree from the parse result
# 6. Render the parse tree (in JSON)
