[Feature] Consider/ Requesting Access to read-only AST of Javascript Parser #675

Description

@ganeshkbhat

Can you make the AST available as read-only to developers in browsers [rethink security concerns] and js server environments if not on browers? Seems like the mozilla docs Parser_API documentation is somehow removed and I am still wondering how to access the file's parsed, even if read-only, AST

  1. Access AST: Proposal status: Access AST of the javascript module nodejs/node#45158
  2. Use Cases of AST like JS Parsers: access the import cache imported packages cache like require.cache nodejs/node#45207
  3. One of many JS Parsers [Use Cases]: Upgrade to latest version of ECMAScript 2021/ 2022 dop251/goja#498
  4. JS Parsers in the market [Use Cases]: https://github.com/fkling/astexplorer
