Product Context: Grammar::Modelica

Why this project exists

Grammar::Modelica provides a parser for the Modelica language using Raku grammar facilities. It exists to make Modelica source code machine-readable for validation, analysis, and downstream tooling.

Problems it solves

• Converts Modelica source text into structured parse results.

• Encodes Appendix B grammar rules from the Modelica spec in executable form.

• Gives Raku users a reusable language grammar component for Modelica processing.

Desired user experience

• Users can parse Modelica snippets/files reliably with a straightforward API.

• Grammar behavior should be predictable and close to official syntax rules.

• Parse failures should be understandable and actionable.

• Test coverage should make refactoring safe.

Current product direction

Based on the project brief, modernization work is expected to focus on:

• Updating to modern Raku ecosystem conventions.

• Improving parse performance and maintainability.

• Adding Action classes for AST-oriented outputs.

• Preparing for broader Modelica version support.
