It is so neat to have this smorgasbord without needing to install emulators or containers with toolchains, or worse, acquire all of the relevant hardware as in the old old days.
- jcranmer 6y agoObligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1053/ https://xkcd.com/1053/ As a compiler writer, I find this useful when I have an "oh crap" moment and need to find a simple C program to generate specific IR, or I need to find the IR of a simple C program. Despite literally having a built tip-of-trunk compiler that I'm working on. It's that convenient.
- antoinealb 6y agoIt is possible to hook custom compilers if you run compiler explorer locally, at least I sort of remember using that in a previous role. Sounds like it could be useful for your use case.
- dang 6y agoIt's not a duplicate! Reposts are ok after a year or so: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. I post those links because many users like to read older threads. Still looking for brief unambiguous wording to make that clear... "if curious see also" is still leading to some misunderstandings.
