I just finished the first part of the book (building the intepreter, but I did it in typed Python). The book sent me back to the college days where I remember doing similar things. Can't wait to start working on the bytecode virtual machine. It's really an excellent book.

#22Author here! It feels amazing to have this done and live. I'm happy to talk about whatever you might want to know about it. If you're curious how the sausage was made, I wrote a blog post about taking the web book and bringing it to print and ebook here: http://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2021/07/29/640-pages-in-15...

I am in absolute awe at the PDF diff tool. Wonderful, wonderful stuff.

#25I love Crafting Interpreters, excited to see it in print! I might just buy a copy to support the author, the illustrations do make it coffee table-worthy.

This book has been a life saver during the pandemic, not only the world situation but I personally was a bit disappointed with my career. I was inspired by one of your posts where you mention that you were writing every single day for four years. I decided to use the same approach and I started reading the book and coding a bit every single day. I was able to finish it completely and I wrote two implementations of Lox. I just ordered a paper copy, from the PDF sample it seems it looks gorgeous!
Thank you very much for such a great contribution to the world!

Woohoo, congrats Bob! I’ll be picking up a copy (is there a difference in your cut for Amazon vs Barnes & Noble?) and am excited to work through it. I’ve been referencing the web version here and there but waited on working through it entirely til I had a physical copy :D

That's going to look awesome next to my copy of Game Programming Patterns! ... What do you mean "Temporarily Out Of Stock", amazon.co.uk!?
