This is my first true open source contribution as I am relatively new in this field. Some parsers already exist for js even for clojure/script, but somehow they failed to parse complex formatting expressions (italic and bold at the same time), or they failed to parse large files. I tried my best to solve these problems, and I would love to see that this work could help someone in the same need.

On my machine I am able to parse a 16mB file in approximately 4 seconds, small files are sub 4ms. I didn't try to optimize this yet, because I felt satisfied with this result.

I plan to use it in order to interface it with some other project I have concerning some front end component library.

Have a good day !
