DSLs in Action

I just received the final version of DSLs in Action, a book I reviewed for Manning.

The author included in this version an example regarding Xtext, probably I was not the only one to suggest it.

Now I am writing a short review to post on Amazon.

In my opinion the part on internal DSLs is great: it is very pragmatical and there example using a lot of languages. I have to suggest taking a look at this book.

And they even pick a sentence of mine to put on the cover, wow, I am happy about that 😀

I build parsers, transpilers and languages for people whose work is too specific for off-the-shelf software. I co-founded Strumenta, in Torino.
