Rust C Compiler

2017-12-21

During my winter vacation, I decided to start following along with Nora Sandler's Write a C Compiler series.

I've been interested in compilers for a long time, but besides making small esolangs and partial parsers for existing scripting languages, I've never sat down to build a compiler for a real language end-to-end.

I think Rust is a great language to author a compiler in, and it's great practice for developing my intuition with the platform too!

You can check out my progress so far, currently up to the end of part one, on GitHub.

Since the repository won't ever be a useful project, it exists solely as reference code, whether for other people following along with the series or just for those curious about Rust or compilers
