# vig
|
|
|
|
a [v] parser in zig, also a shitpost taken too far
|
|
|
|
[v]: https://vlang.io
|
|
|
|
(will likely be done as a full compiler, who knows, leave a like and subscribe
|
|
for more epic adventures)
|
|
|
|
## why
|
|
|
|
- because i want to learn parsers and what best to do it with a language i'm
|
|
negatively charged towards
|
|
- theres an ast now it looks pretty
|
|
- i finally understand recursive descent parsers
|
|
|
|
## variations
|
|
|
|
- `for` is split between `for` and `loop` because my fucking god i cant stand
|
|
having *four* different variations of `for` to parse.
|
|
|
|
- struct initialization is with `Struct.{}`, not `Struct{}`, to remove parsing
|
|
ambiguities (`if a {}` and `a{}`, v solves that with case, e.g structs Must
|
|
Be Properly Titled and i can't bother with that)
|
|
|
|
## todo
|
|
|
|
- no `for` yet
|
|
- no methods yet (`fn (v Type) blah() blah {...}`)
|
|
- do we really want a type system
|
|
- do we really want to output c
|
|
- do we really want to output llvm
|
|
- do we really want to output x86
|
|
|
|
## how
|
|
|
|
- step 1: dab
|
|
- step 2: ```
|
|
git clone https://gitdab.com/luna/vig.git

cd vig
|
|
zig build install --prefix ~/.local/
|
|
```
