🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Are you lost ? Do you have trouble understanding this document ? 😭 fr fr, if that's you, please go read the overview that the Introduction to Parser Tools hands you. That document is literally the entrypoint to the whole system this package is part of — it's the main character of the docs, this one is a supporting role 🫶

So. This package provides a sub-type of pt::peg::container — and it comes preloaded with a parsing expression grammar that describes a textual format for parsing expression grammars. Yes bestie, it's grammars all the way down, iconic behaviour honestly 👑

The sub-type gives you the exact same API as pt::peg::container. And instead of duplicating all those contents here (copy-paste is not the moment 🙈), the reader is asked to go read the referenced document. periodt.
