A work-in-progress to re-implement my B-Minor Compiler in Rust.
Currently, lexing, parsing, name resolution, typechecking, and some other analysis/verification are all "done". All that's left (besides a lot of polish) is to tie it in to a backend powered by LLVM via the Inkwell crate. Until I've done that, you can see a much smaller practice project I did to learn about LLVM here.
If you're unfamiliar with Rust and want to build/run the project (after installing Rust and Cargo via Rustup):
cargo run -- examples/hello_world.bm
(Currently, running it with the hello_world example also won't output much as there's no code generation,
so you can either input a print statement with the AST after parsing, or run one of the examples in the
should_error folder to see diagnostic output!)
Important
Building the compiler from source requires an installation of LLVM v18, as LLVM's API headers are called externally.
