Expand description
Bindings for the Solidity and Yul ASTs.
The Yul AST bindings are available in the yul module.
To gain an overview of the AST, it might be helpful to start at the entry point of a complete Solidity AST: the SourceUnit node.
§Version Support
These types should be compatible with at least Solidity 0.5.x and above, but may also support 0.4.x-0.5.x in most cases.
The legacy Solidity AST is not supported.
