Compiler Development

This is a collection of resources on compiler construction, programming language design, and related topics.

Compiler Resources

• Engineering a Compiler Great for compiler back-ends and optimization.
• Crafting Interpreters Beginner-friendly and highly practical. Recommended even for compiler devs.
• LLVM's Kaleidoscope Tutorial An intro to building a language using LLVM.
• Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools (The Dragon Book) Classic, parser-heavy, and theoretical.

Programming Language Design

• Types and Programming Languages
• Advanced Topics in Types and Programming Languages
• Practical Foundations for Programming Languages

Covers Both Compiler & PL Design

• Essentials of Programming Languages Elegant presentation of both interpretation and semantics.

Optimization Techniques

• What Has My Compiler Done for Me Lately? (YouTube)
• Optimizations in C++ Compilers: A Practical Journey

Computer Architecture

• Essentials of Computer Architecture (PDF) Useful context for low-level compiler work.
