- favorited 7y agoI recognize Rui's name from llvm-dev, so I think they found their next compiler!
- muizelaar 7y agohttps://github.com/rui314/9cc https://github.com/rui314/9cc and https://github.com/rui314/chibicc https://github.com/rui314/chibicc are his next two compilers.
- nineteen999 7y ago> More folks should write compilers It's on my TODO list. After, of course, I finish that x86_32 preemptive multi-tasking kernel I started writing 20 years ago and never finished. Plus the 16-bit CP/M clone for the 68000 that's gathering dust. Or maybe after my half finished Z80 emulator or my half finished Z80-systems-in-Unreal-Engine project, or my mostly-but-not-completely-working VT100 emulator. Sigh. How do people ever finish this stuff?
- newnewpdro 7y agoNot participating in internet forums is a good start, huge time sink.
- nineteen999 7y agoUsually a during work hours activity for me, while stuff is "building", but point taken.
- sitkack 7y agoIf ever I heard a reason to use C++ templates, this is it.
- rui314 7y agoI'm writing a new one (https://github.com/rui314/chibicc https://github.com/rui314/chibicc) and also writing a book about how to write a C compiler using my new compiler as a reference implementation.
