+# RustPython/parser
+
+This directory has the code for python lexing, parsing and generating Abstract Syntax Trees (AST).
+
+The steps are:
+- Lexical analysis: splits the source code into tokens.
+- Parsing and generating the AST: transforms those tokens into an AST. Uses `LALRPOP`, a Rust parser generator framework.
+
+This crate is published on [https://docs.rs/rustpython-parser](https://docs.rs/rustpython-parser).
+
+We wrote [a blog post](https://rustpython.github.io/2020/04/02/thing-explainer-parser.html) with screenshots and an explanation to help you understand the steps by seeing them in action.
+
+For more information on LALRPOP, here is a link to the [LALRPOP book](https://github.com/lalrpop/lalrpop).
+
+There is a readme in the `src` folder with the details of each file.
+
+
+## Directory content
+
+`build.rs`: The build script.
+`Cargo.toml`: The config file.
+
+The `src` directory has:
+
+**lib.rs**   
+This is the crate's root.
+
+**lexer.rs**   
+This module takes care of lexing python source text. This means source code is translated into separate tokens.
+
+**parser.rs**   
+A python parsing module. Use this module to parse python code into an AST. There are three ways to parse python code. You could parse a whole program, a single statement, or a single expression.
+
+**ast.rs**   
+ Implements abstract syntax tree (AST) nodes for the python language. Roughly equivalent to [the python AST](https://docs.python.org/3/library/ast.html).
+
+**python.lalrpop**   
+Python grammar.
+
+**token.rs**   
+Different token definitions. Loosely based on token.h from CPython source.
+
+**errors.rs**   
+Define internal parse error types. The goal is to provide a matching and a safe error API, masking errors from LALR.
+
+**fstring.rs**   
+Format strings.
+
+**function.rs**   
+Collection of functions for parsing parameters, arguments.
+
+**location.rs**   
+Datatypes to support source location information.
+
+**mode.rs**   
+Execution mode check. Allowed modes are `exec`, `eval` or `single`.
+
+
+## How to use
+
+For example, one could do this:
+```
+  use rustpython_parser::{Parse, ast};
+  let python_source = "print('Hello world')";
+  let python_statements = ast::Suite::parse(python_source).unwrap();  // statements
+  let python_expr = ast::Expr::parse(python_source).unwrap();  // or expr
+```
