# rgo (stalled) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/yberreby/rgo.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/yberreby/rgo)

`rgo` was a work-in-progress Go compiler, written in Rust.

This was primarily a fun learning project.

I chose Go as the source language because C compilers have been written over and

over, and I wanted to do something new. Go's spec is pretty simple, so it seemed

like a good choice. The fact that is has a GC also made implementing a compiler

for it more challenging and, therefore, more interesting.

Additionally, Go's reference implementation uses a custom backend for

optimization and codegen, while `rgo` was to use LLVM for optimization and machine

code generation.
