Description
I'm trying to define syntax highlighting in Atom, and to that end I need to know which keywords are reserved, and whether or not they are positional.
For example, consider
`private let my_var' = 7`
one needs to know that `let` precedes a function name, and may itself be preceded by the modifier `private`.
src/parser and src/syntax both seem to define a syntax. Which should I use?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Compare the syntax definitions in src/parser and src/syntax, starting with how each represents declarations such as `private let my_var' = 7`. Determine which source is authoritative for Atom syntax highlighting, then document the reserved and positional keyword information needed to describe the syntax reference.
