Hey! I'm willing to create a programming language using nim.

It's an educational project. Been reading about compilers for weeks now and I started using tools like flex and bison for lexer and parser. I know nim have a parsing library but nowhere near that level.

There is an old post (2014) with a similar question so I'm bringing that back a few years later. Is there anything anyone know that could speed up the process of developing a programing language using nim? (I can have c code if needed ofc)

Wow, I was just reading about the compilation pipeline today!

I suppose you could use at least the lexing part from a generator like flex, not so sure about using AST generators easily (it's possible).

Is your language complicated enough to warrant a parser generator or could you just use a custom parser?
