Ika

ika is a purely handwritten programming language which I designed to learn how to write compilers in Rust.

Features

The ika compiler compiles the ika source code file into an LLVM intermediate representation and then compiles it into an executable file

Download

git clone git@github.com:Quaestiox/ika.git

Usage

Since the compiler uses LLVM IR as the intermediate code, you need to make sure you have Clang before using it (not compatible with very old versions now): Download LLVM here

try to write something:

str h1 = "Hello, ";
sub main(){
    str h2 = "World"; 
    echo(@h1, 7);
    echo(h2, 5);
}

compile the Ika source file:

ika [-o a.out] hello.ika

help command:

ika -h

show the AST:

ika -a

show the tokens:

ika -t

show the source code:

ika -s
