Currently striving towards my own TypeScript to native x86_64 physical compiler quine bootstrapped off of TCC and QuickJS. Bytecode and AST are there!

This sounds like a really cool project. What challenges have you encountered so far?

  • Thanks. The hardest part has been slogging through the segfaults and documenting all the unprincipled things I've had to add. Post-bootstrap, I have to undo it all because my IR is a semantically rich JSON format that is turing-incomplete by design. I'm building a substrate for rich applications over bounded computation, like eBPF but for applications and inference.
