WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
BuildIt is available open source at https://github.com/AjayBrahmakshatriya/buildit under the MIT license.
The repository also has other samples which demonstrate code generation besides just loop unrolling. If you look at - https://github.com/BuildIt-lang/buildit/blob/master/samples/sample17.cpp and its corresponding output - https://github.com/BuildIt-lang/buildit/blob/master/samples/outputs/sample17 we have an example where you can write an interpreter for a simple language and BuildIt can turn it into a compiler. While this result is not new, in our opinion we make it considerably easy. Specifically we allow side effects on static variables inside control flow dependent on dynamic expressions. The outcome of this might not be obvious, but this allows you to, for example create nested loops which were not there in the original program but were present in the language input (BrainFuck in this case) that you were trying to interpret.
