July 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
Last month I worked on the language ABI (Application Binary Interface). This is where I have made an effort to make modules buildable and exportable (into dynamic shared libraries) to the language interpreter. I call the build environment for these modules the SDK (software development kit). It is a Meson project that supports not just Unix based platforms but also Windows. Before this month, one could only export functions in modules, but now one can include classes also. For me this felt very good, as I would expect of a language to support as much in the SDK as possible of the original script-language data types. Here is a link to an example module library written in C that can be compiled for export into the language interpreter: https://github.com/Ricardicus/ric-script/blob/master/src/sdk_lib/ext_lib.c

Building my own programming language using C
I host the source code here at GitHub. There are links to documentation and even an environment where you can test the interpreter on some samples to be found in the README. If you feel like this is an interesting C-project I'd appreciate the dopamine kick of a star over there at the github platform.

January 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
Continued work on my interpreter for [ric-script](https://github.com/Ricardicus/ric-script) which is an interpreted dynamically typed and lazy evaluated language. Imagine Javascript without semicolon and Python without the indentation thing. I build the syntax tree using yacc. Here is a [code sample](https://ric-script-u5ep8.ondigitalocean.app/doc/syntaxwalkthrough.html#class-declarations) where I build an RPN calculator in it. I’d appreciate the dopamine kick of a star if you find the project interesting.

How can I support very big integers?
Thank you all! I have made it work now in my project . A sample script can be found here .

August 2021 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
I continuing with building my first programming language. It is an interpreted dynamically typed and lazy evaluated language. It is like a merge of python and javascript, imagine Python except the focus on indentation. I build the syntax tree using yacc. Here is a code sample where I build an RPN calculator in it. The source repository is here, I’d appreciate the dopamine kick of a star if you like it.

Implementing the Perceus reference counting GC
In this post, I describe my experience and some caveats about implementing and gaining benefits from the Perceus RC. I've been developing a programming language called Pen and implemented a large part of the Perceus RC there. I hope this post helps someone who is implementing the algorithm or even deciding if it's worth implementing it in their own languages.
