nelua-lang VS acwj

If you Like Lua's syntax and you wish you could achieve C speeds and have the metaprogramming ability of Java (Generics), by all means try https://nelua.io/ , you won't regret it!

I should be uploading the code sometime this week, by the way. I'm looking for a way to bundle the code (which is written in Nelua) in a single C file, so anyone can build it without having to install all of the language and the dependencies.

You could probably write a kernel in Nelua or Luau, though I don't know of any efforts to do so.

I already asked this question exactly 2 years ago: https://github.com/edubart/nelua-lang/discussions/51

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 :-)

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.

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
