Abstract
Ever wonder what is metaprogramming? Ever wonder how a machine translates ember code into the websites that you interact with? Want to update your codebase to a newer syntax without going through editing every line? Curious about what linters, codemod, compilers, etc. have in common? Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)! We'll aim to demystify AST in this talk. You'll realize it’s really fun and cool, and you can leverage this concept to create your own tools!
