Summary:

Langkit (nickname for language kit) is a tool whose purpose is to make it easy to create syntactic and semantic analysis engines. Write a language specification in our Python DSL and Langkit will generate for you an Ada library with bindings for the C and Python programming languages.

The generated library is meant to provide a basis to write tooling, including tools working on potentially changing and incorrect code, such as IDEs.

The currently main Langkit user is Libadalang, a high performance semantic engine for the Ada programming language.
