AECforWebAssembly VS PicoBlaze_Simulator_in_JS

Great! I have not yet made source maps for my programming language that compiles to WebAssembly, and I probably never will.

Up until today, my AEC-to-WebAssembly was, if somebody tried to use two structures of different types as the second and the third operand to the ?: (ternary conditional) operator, as in this example: ``` Structure First Consists Of Nothing; EndStructure

Well, I have written the first compiler for my programming language, targetting x86, in IE6-compatible JavaScript, and the second compiler, targetting WebAssembly, has been written in C++11. I think that, to choose a language to write a compiler in, you need to look at at least two things:

You can see the releases v2.5.3 and v2.5.2 of AECforWebAssembly on GitHub. They are produced with the same version of GCC, the only difference (as far as I know) is that v2.5.2 was produced directly on Debian, whereas v2.5.3 was cross-compiled from Windows to Linux using Docker.

That could be true. I host my AEC-to-WebAssembly compiler on GitHub, GitLab and SourceForge, and it's only on GitHub that it has 21 stars and 2 forks. On GitLab and SourceForge, it has zero of both.

Well, the main compiler for my programming language is targetting the JavaScript Virtual Machine by outputting WebAssembly. I think it's even better than targetting Java Virtual Machine, because, for one thing, your executables can run in any modern browser if you output WebAssembly. If you target Java Virtual Machine, the users need to actually download your app. Furthermore, there is an official assembler for WebAssembly called WebAssembly Binary Toolkit (WABT), so your compiler can output assembly and not have to deal with binary files. There is nothing equivalent to that for Java Virtual Machine.

For my Bachelor thesis, I made a PicoBlaze Assembler and Emulator in JavaScript. I've discussed it on many Internet forums, and quite a few people have complained that the core of my assembler is hard-to-follow due to lots of if-branchings. So, what is the other way of making the core of the assembler?

Well, I've never used any CSS framework. And my largest HTML5 project, a 3'500-lines-long PicoBlaze Simulator, uses no JavaScript framework either. The only JavaScript framework I've ever used is JQuery, which I used for my 2'000-lines-of-code flashcard game. I haven't yet managed to get an entry-level job, though, so maybe it's not a good idea to take advice from me.

By the way, what do you think about my other project, PicoBlaze Simulator?

My first assembler+simulator is 3'000 lines of code.
