  • What instructions are needed for a language vm
    3 projects | /r/Compilers | 15 Oct 2021
    I have been working on my own VM (and language) as well and I decided to have only a small set of instructions that I wanted. I finalized on ~25 instructions. You can check them out here - https://github.com/Feral-Lang/Feral/blob/master/include/VM/OpCodes.hpp

  • Understanding tail-call optimization

  • GitHub actions are awesome

    Until recently, when we wanted to create new releases for ArkScript, we had to build the language on all the system we support (currently Windows and Linux), build the modules (http, console, random, etc), test everything on each operating system, and then package the needed files and directory in ZIPs. We had to go to GitHub, create a new release, add the correct tag (and not mix it with the title as they are different things!), grep the latest changelog, and add our artifacts.
