Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Toy C compiler, worth having an IR stage?
I wrote https://github.com/DoctorWkt/acwj. I'm working on a version with an IR so I can add some optimisations to it. I'd say, yes, have an IR :-)

Why Take a Compiler Course?
I currently study https://github.com/DoctorWkt/acwj which is quite interesting I have to admit.
I'm interested in this topic, because I want to participate in TinyC compiler's development; I use it quite often to run C demos of mine and its execution is instant.
The least I can do is to either fix bugs or extend it to support more C99, C11, C17 features, and why not even C23 as soon as it gets approved?
All I need is to gain the necessary knowledge and experience to jump right in and start fixing things.

Toy languages for implementing a compiler.
I took a journey writing my first compiler, and started with just evaluating integer expressions. From there, I moved to adding language features and ended up with a compiler that could compile itself: https://github.com/DoctorWkt/acwj

Should I abandon using haskell for my compiler?
Comparing the haskell and cpp implementations of the LLVM tutorial lead me to believe it might be faster to learn haskell and implement the compiler in haskell than to implement it in cpp.

What would be your programming language of choice to implement a JIT compiler ?
I think for writing compilers Haskell deserves to make the list. It is really excellent at creating DSLs. https://www.stephendiehl.com/llvm/

Proposal to Merge Pyston with Cpython
I'm no expert, but you might be interested in: https://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/
There's also a Haskell version if you'd prefer: https://www.stephendiehl.com/llvm/
Idk how to do this in python as I'm not really good with it, but in C, to make your compiler a JIT, you would `mmap` a region as writeable, write the machine code to it that you already know how to generate, `mprotect` it as PROT_EXEC instead of PROC_WRITE, cast the pointer to the region to a function pointer, and then call it. These functions may be available in the python sys package but I don't really know.
I've implemented a "JIT" that takes machine code as hex and does this. Warning: it's complete garbage with no error checking but is a good proof of concept. https://gist.github.com/martinjacobd/3ee56f3c7b7ce621034ec3e...

Implementing a LLVM Micro C compiler in Haskell
This is amazing. I tried following Stephen Diehl's JIT compiler in LLVM tutorial[0] a few years ago but it was already outdated (the llvm-hs library changed quite a bit), and subsequent web searches didn't turn up much.
For those interested in tutorials like this, I'd also recommend a very literate Haskell compiler for the PCF language to C[1], which is essentially lambda calculus with some primitives.

Need some help with monad transformers
I'm currently working with llvm-hs-pure and am struggling to properly emit code for a module. I basically followed https://www.stephendiehl.com/llvm/#chapter-3-code-generation and have types like:
