Building a Tiny Compiler

Explore the intricacies of compiler construction in this 24-minute conference talk from try! Swift NYC 2016. Dive into the world of compilers as Samuel Giddins, a core contributor to CocoaPods and iOS developer at Realm, builds a tiny compiler for a custom language from scratch. Gain insights into parsing, lexing, and code generation, with a focus on how Swift can elegantly solve complex problems in compiler design. Follow along as Giddins demonstrates the implementation of a new programming language, covering topics such as functional programming, semantic analysis, and code generation.
