// TODO: support for using external non-terminals (i.e. other nom based parsers)
// TODO: parser templates maybe? (like lalrpop)
// TODO: extra functionality
//   - character classes `[a-zA-z]`
//   - any character, `.`
//   - repetition: exactly n times `{n}`, n or more times `{n,}`, at least n and at most m times `{n, m}`
//   - more regex features?
//   - handle named captures inside looping constucts

// TODO: option to skip whitespace
