mamba

An experimental programming language and its compiler.

Language Specification

• The language specification is not yet written, but it is mostly based on the python's grammar.
• Read test.mamba to see how it looks like.
• A statically-typed language.
• Semicolon required;

The Structure

• Lexer
• Parser
  • Hand-written Parser (WIP)
  • Parser Generator (TODO)
• Code Generator
  • LLVM IRGen (WIP)
  • RISC-V Codegen (TODO)

The Goal

• Start with little compiler knowledge but finish with plenty of knowledge.
• Write everything from scratch without depending on third-party libraries.
• Make a working compiler even if it does not have industry-level completeness.
