It's good to use, not necessarily the fastest or cleanest but +it gets the job done. Most importantly, it's a minimum working product for use +straight away. + +The /Converter/ cmake project is my C implementation of this transpiler system. +It uses a lot of techniques that I have learned from the dragon book, and I'm +kinda using it as an exercise in lexers and simple tokenizers, compiling content +from one format to another. |
