- finish first end-to-end prototype
- implement typechecking for initial language subset
- implement C code generation for initial language subset
- make sure to have underflow and overflow checks
- vim syntax highlighting
- vim
:makecompatible diagnostic formatting
- add enough language features to make writing useful code possible
- struct field access
- make sure to support through pointer
-
return,breakandcontinue- don’t worry about checking whether every path through a function returns
-
bool,trueandfalse - infinite loops and while loops
- length-prefixed slices with bounds-checked indexing
- string literal escapes
- struct literals
- bitwise or, and, not, xor
- C-like enums lowered to integers
-
mallocandfreeas special syntax - debug printing as special syntax
- unchecked external C functions
- struct field access
- write some tiny demo programs to make sure everything works
- add enough language features to make writing code an alright experience
- format strings
- methods
- nullable types
- look at Zig and Hare for inspiration
- some form of a
switch-like construct - some form of unions
- could be unchecked unions, Rust-like extended
enums with payloads, Hare-like anonymous tagged unions
- could be unchecked unions, Rust-like extended
- enough of a generics/templates system to allow making collection types and nothing else
- Zig-like tests
- basic multi-file support
- self hosting
- further features ...
- replace dedicated
mallocandfreesyntax with Zig-like custom allocators - immutable variables and pointers
- module system
- unused warnings
- actually check if all paths through a function return a value
- documentation generator
- autoformatter
- custom TUI editor with language intelligence
- LSP server
- replace dedicated
