I've just started the same, it's definitely fun. One thing that surprised me about field resolution is that a class can have multiple fields with the same name (if they have different types).

The gigantic spec has so many surprises hidden in it - the use of a bespoke “modified utf8” for native strings was a fun discovery. Good luck with the mammoth project! I think the fun will really start when it comes to running mini programs to test against a reference implementation and finding out we implemented core parts like method/field/(super)interface resolution totally wrong. Oh, and optimisation too. It’d be cool to implement a JIT but that’s a long way away
