YAML is a popular "human-readable data serialization format", its popularity is especially evident in the Ruby community. As such it would be a great addition to Nim's standard library. This task requires you to read the [YAML specification](http://yaml.org/spec/) and to create a module which will be able to parse YAML data into an AST. Subsequently the parser can be used to create a high-level API to access the data similar to the current design of the [json](http://nim-lang.org/json.html) module which provides a low-level parser and a higher-level interface which builds on top of the parser. - -**Tasks**: -* Write an efficient parser which will turn YAML data into an AST. -* Design and implement an API on top of the AST to query the data contained in the AST easily. - -**Expected Result**: A working YAML module with the ability to read all YAML compliant data. - -**Bonus points**: Thorough testing of the YAML module to ensure that the parser works as expected. - -**Difficulty:** Medium - -**Mentor:** def- ([@def-](http://github.com/def-)), ? - ___ #### Improve times module **Desirable skills:** Knowledge of date time representations, native time APIs.
