  1. Nov 29, 2017 · Before you start, you need to decide on two things: what language to write your compiler in, and how to handle parsing and lexing. You can implement the compiler in whatever language you like, but I’d recommend using a language with sum types and pattern matching 1, like OCaml, Haskell, or Rust.

  2. I suggest you to read Compilers and Interpreters in C++ as a starting point(By Ronald Mak). Alternatively, "lets build a compiler" by Crenshaw is OK. If you don't want to do that, you could as well write your own VM and write a code generator targeted to that VM. Another starting point: http://gnuu.org/2009/09/18/writing-your-own-toy-compiler/

  3. Feb 28, 2010 · Write your compiler with separate, existing tools (GCC, Visual C++ Express, Mingw / djgpp, tcc), and you can worry about self-compiling your project at a much later stage.

  4. Mar 29, 2022 · Writing a C Compiler is a hands-on guide to, well, writing your own C compiler. It takes the same basic approach as the series of blog posts I published here a few years ago. You start out by compiling the tiniest possible C program to x64 assembly, then add a new feature in each chapter.

  5. Almost more than half of it is parsing and not actual compiler writing. If you're just starting I recommend "build your own lisp" it's a very good tutorial to follow and the author has only created his own parser so getting through it is rather easier than writing one from scratch.

  6. Jul 26, 2024 · Writing a C Compiler will take you step by step through the process of building your own compiler for a significant subset of C—no prior experience with compiler construction or assembly code needed. Once you’ve built a working compiler for the simplest C program, you’ll add new features chapter by chapter.

  8. You’ll need these to implement the extra credit features, or otherwise extend your compiler beyond what the book covers: The C Standard specifies how C programs behave, in theory. This book uses C17, the latest revision at the time of writing. Purchase the official standard, or use the similar, freely available draft.
