+# ast-grep got 6000 stars!
+
+We are thrilled to announce that [ast-grep](https://ast-grep.github.io/), the powerful code search tool, has reached a stellar milestone of 6000 stars on GitHub! This is a testament to the community's trust in our tool and the continuous improvements we've made. Let's dive into the latest features and enhancements that make ast-grep the go-to tool for developers worldwide.

+
+
+## Feature Enhancements
+
+- **Rewriters Addition**: We've added support for rewriters [#855](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/855), enabling complex code transformations and refactoring with ease. The new feature unlocks a novel functional programming like code rewrite scheme: [find and patch](/advanced/find-n-patch.html). Check out our previous [blog post](https://dev.to/herrington_darkholme/find-patch-a-novel-functional-programming-like-code-rewrite-scheme-3964) for more details.

+
+
+- **Error/Warning Suppression Support**: The new feature [#446](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/446) allows users to suppress specific errors or warnings via the [code comment](/guide/project/lint-rule.html#suppress-linting-error) `ast-grep-ignore`. ast-grep also [respects suppression comments](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/issues/1019) in Language Server Protocol (LSP), making it easier to manage warnings and errors in your codebase.
+
+
+- **Enhanced Rule Constraints**: The ast-grep rule `constraints` previously only accepted `pattern`, `kind` and `regex`.
+Now it accepts a full rule [#855](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/855), providing more flexibility than ever before.
+
+## VSCode extension
+
+The [ast-grep VSCode extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ast-grep.ast-grep-vscode) is an official [VSCode integration](/guide/tools/editors.html) for this CLI tool. It unleashes the power of structural search and replace (SSR) directly into your editor.
+
+### Notable Features
+- **Search**: Find code patterns with syntax tree.
+- **Replace**: Refactor code with pattern.
+- **Diagnose**: Identify issues via ast-grep rule.
+
+## Performance Boost
+
+- **Parallel Thread Output Fix**: A significant fix [#be230ca](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/commit/be230ca) ensures parallel thread outputs are now guaranteed, boosting overall performance.
+
+## Architectural Evolution
+
+- **Tree-Sitter Version Bump**: We've upgraded to the latest tree-sitter version, enhancing parsing accuracy and speed. In future releases, we plan to leverage tree-sitter's [new Web Assembly grammar](https://zed.dev/blog/language-extensions-part-1) to support even more languages.
+- **Scan and Diff Merge**: The [refactor](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/commit/c78299d2902662cd98bda44f3faf3fbc88439078) combines `CombinedScan::scan` and `CombinedScan::diff` for a more streamlined process.
+- **Input Stream Optimization**: Now, ast-grep avoids unnecessary input stream usage when updating all rules [#943](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/943), making it possible to use `sg scan --update-all`.
+
+## Usability Improvements
+
+- **Error Messaging for Rule File Parsing**: The VSCode extension now provides clearer error messages [#968](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/968) when rule file parsing fails, making troubleshooting a breeze.
+
+- **Better Pattern Parsing**: Improved expando character replacement [#883](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/883) to make pattern .
+- **More Permissive Patterns**: Patterns have become more permissive [#1087](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/1087) that allows matching `$METAVAR` with different syntax kind.
+
+## Enhanced Error Reporting
+
+We've introduced a suite of features to improve error reporting, making it easier to debug and refine your code:
+
+- Report undefined meta-variables, errors in fixes, unused rewriters, and undefined utility rules.
+- Add field ID errors for relational rules and optimize test updates to avoid erroneous reports.
+- Shift from reporting file counts to error counts for a more meaningful insight into code quality.

+
+
+
+## Language Support Expansion
+
+- **Haskell Support**: Haskell enthusiasts rejoice! ast-grep now supports Haskell via tree-sitter-haskell [#1128](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/pull/1128), broadening our language coverage.
+
+## NAPI Advancements
+
+- **NAPI Linux x64 musl Support**: Our latest feat in NAPI [#c4d7902](https://github.com/ast-grep/ast-grep/commit/c4d7902) adds support for Linux x64 musl, ensuring wider compatibility and performance.
+
+## Thanks
+
+As ast-grep continues to grow, we remain committed to providing a tool that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our diverse user base.
