INRIA/spoon
Spoon is a metaprogramming library to analyze and transform Java source code. :spoon: is made with :heart:, :beers: and :sparkles:. It parses source files to build a well-designed AST with powerful analysis and transformation API.
Spoon helps Java developers analyze, transform, or generate Java source code programmatically. You provide Java source files, and it creates a structured representation of that code, allowing you to manipulate it or extract information. The output can be modified source code or detailed analyses.
1,907 stars. Actively maintained with 21 commits in the last 30 days.
Use this if you need to build tools that understand, modify, or create Java code, such as refactoring tools, static analyzers, or code generators.
Not ideal if you are looking for an IDE feature, a simple linter, or a tool to run Java code, as it focuses solely on source code manipulation rather than execution or integrated development.
