Making your own compiler

Gonzalo933 opened this issue · 5 comments

I think that will be a nice topic to add to the list. Making your own compiler really helps you understanding how they work.

Here is a good starting point: Compilers, Principles, Techniques and Tools written by Alfred V. Aho, Ravi Sethi and Jeffrey D. Ullman.

At my university, it's a required class for CS students and optional for students taking engineering/software related programs.

Great topic, very well studied and useful - definitely worth adding to the list

I seriously want to learn that

It is in mine too, I remember we used Bison and things like that, but I already forgot almost everything

There is also a book called crafting interpreter's which is good to start.
You can get it for free or read online.
