# C@ (catlang) 🐈

### Description

A personal exercise in writing an optimizing compiler and language

design.  

The language is called C@ (as in C at, cat), or catlang, and this repo serves as the reference compiler implementation written in Zig.  

The main goals of the language are: **LLVM-free** x86 and ARM64 codegen, **static typing** and a standard library that includes easy to use graphic primitives and drawing to a window, to make it easy to write good native apps that dont use electron or a webview.

### TODO

- **Frontend**  

  - [x] Tokenization  

  - [x] Parsing (AST)  

  - [ ] Type Checking

- **Backend**  

  - [ ] IR Design

  - [ ] ARM64 Codegen  

  - [ ] x86 Codegen
