- A simply-designed compiled programming language.
- Can call C functions without ceremony.
- Suitable for learning some compiler construction basics.
- Also suitable as a base for further development.
- Also suitable for use as-is.
- Whack currently lacks a comprehensively designed type system.
- important Progressively designed/implemented. Some constructs may seem whack.
- No tests (pull requests welcome (follow clang's test style)).
- Currently supporting Windows (I'm on Windows).
- To view current progress, run
whack.exe
in snapshot folder.
Pre-Alpha. This repository is a dump of what is currently on my Sublime Text.
- Industrial-strength compiler for our Stage 1/State 2 compiler.
- Stage 1 compiler: Compile whack code using using C++ code): (Current progress).
- Stage 2 compiler: Use our Stage 1 compiler to compile the Whack compiler in whack.
- Stage 3 compiler: Use our State 2 compiler to make a self-hosted Whack compiler.
- Standard Library.
- Facebook.Folly (Release folly-2018.08.20.00).
- spdlog (Release spdlog-1.1.0).
gcc
must be available on your PATH (MinGW GCC is available at Nuwen.net).- LLVM (To be provided as a DLL in snapshot folder). For now, download/compile LLVM 6.0.1 DLL.
