SG playground: Write Code to Match Code. Manual 🔗

• ast-grep is a AST-based tool to search code by pattern code. Think it as your old-friend grep but it matches AST node instead of text.
• Write pattern as if write ordinary code. It will match all code that has the same syntactical structure.
• You can use $ sign + upper case letters as wildcard, e.g. $MATCH, to match any single AST node. Think it as REGEX dot ., except it is not textual.
• You can use $$$ to match multiple AST nodes.
