Coding a C compiler in Javascript
In this exciting new project we'll be coding a real C compiler in Javascript. The first version will be able to parse a few commands and when all the steps are done (pre-processing, lexing, defining grammar,parsing,emitting) we will add new functionality, one command at the time.
To follow along in this project you need a basic understanding of Javascript. That's it. Everything Node- or Typescript related I will explain at every step.
This project will work equally well in Windows, Mac OS or Linux. All you need is Node.js and Nasm. Just follow the instructions from the intro.
Happy coding!
