Community-Compiler

This is the Community Compiler project for The Benny Box Community.

Our main venue of discussion is the #community-compiler channel of The Benny Box public Discord server. Feel free to join with this invite if you wish to contribute or discuss the project.

Summary

The Community Compiler project primarily aims to create a new language called Dusk and a compiler for this language.

The language will include a standard library and various tools including Dawn, a package manager and build system for Dusk.

The full language specification can be found in docs/post/syntax.

Current status

The Community Compiler is a work in progress.

We are currently in the process of finalizing the language specification and implementing pre-bootstrap Dusk compilers in C++ and Kotlin.
