To be honest, the project is kind of mimicking Slick2D which is a simple Java framework that introduced me into graphics programming in the first place. My kind of dream project he…

Maybe you would like the BetterC mode in the D programming language... if you mean you like C for it's syntax too. A lot of modern systems prog. languages seem to adopt a more mode…

The link to optimizing an ANSI C interpreter is broken, it's missing a colon after the protocol. I dunno if there's anyone here that can fix that, just thought I'd say it anyway. A…

Comment #10000263
A nice introduction, I'm currently working on a compiler which uses LLVM for code generation... it was very difficult to get into at first. Especially since I was using C (now Go),…

It started off as a side project by myself, I'm a student so I work on it every now and then, but I'm 17 so I have bigger things to prioritise like my education. The large commit c…
