guava vs JavaCC: What are the differences?
guava: Google Core Libraries for Java 6+. The Guava project contains several of Google's core libraries that we rely on in our Java-based projects: collections, caching, primitives support, concurrency libraries, common annotations, string processing, I/O, and so forth; JavaCC: A parser generator for use with Java applications. It is the most popular parser generator for use with Java applications. In addition to the parser generator itself, it provides other standard capabilities related to parser generation such as tree building (via a tool called JJTree included with JavaCC), actions and debugging.
guava and JavaCC can be primarily classified as "Java" tools.
guava is an open source tool with 38K GitHub stars and 8.53K GitHub forks. Here's a link to guava's open source repository on GitHub.
