Description

Description Gremlin has support in many graph databases, a syntax that is a little more JavaScript-y. I suggest making LinkedQL semi-compatible with Gremlin for features unrelated to property graphs.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study Gremlin syntax and LinkedQL syntax, identify overlapping features unrelated to property graphs, design a mapping, and implement parser modifications in Go.
