pfff

Built in OCaml, necessitating familiarity with this language, which can be a significant barrier for teams not already invested in the OCaml ecosystem.

Users must build their own tools from scratch, increasing time and effort compared to using pre-built, ready-to-use solutions.

With the project integrated into Semgrep, original Pfff documentation is sparse or redirected, as indicated by the README, making it harder to learn independently.

Being part of Semgrep means it may not receive independent updates or support, potentially affecting long-term viability for custom tooling outside the Semgrep context.
