In the last video, we taught our compiler to output bytecode. In this video, we'll write a little Ruby to read that back in and decode it! About the Project: Natalie is a work-in-progress compiler for the Ruby programming language. I make videos about the work that goes into the project and what I'm learning as I go.

Our little compiler has an intermediate representation - a set of instructions that power our C++ generation *and* our little toy VM. Wouldn't it be cool if we could serialize those instructions out to a file and read them back in again?? Let's create our own bytecode!

Natalie is our little Ruby compiler that keeps getting better! So many things have happened in the last few months and I wanted to get an update out about what's new and where we are.

We're diving back into this months-old project to give it some new life... a JIT built with LLVM! Here's the repository we're working on: https://github.com/seven1m/mya 0:00 Intro 2:07 Setting up LLVM in Ruby 3:31 Integers 15:41 Strings and Segfault 37:38 Success #ruby #compiler #jit #programming #llvm

We add some math operators and now the Fibonacci example code works! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #virtualmachine #booleans #operators #fibonacci

In our quest to generate a Fibonacci sequence, we need IF/ELSE. Shouldn't be too hard right? (See thumbnail for confused face.) :-) #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #virtualmachine #booleans #if

OK, moment of truth. We've been compiling for a made-up stack-based Virtual Machine, but will that even work? Let's make a little VM to see what happens! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #virtualmachine

The last little bit on methods for now. The method arguments need to know their type. Fun! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types #methods #arguments

Our little methods aren't very useful because they don't accept arguments. Let's fix that. #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types #methods #functions #arguments

Methods, functions, whatever. Let's add those! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types #methods #functions

Variables need to know their own type, too! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types #variables

Wouldn't be much of a language without variables. Let's add those. #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types #variables

Ahh, types. We need a way to track type information across the program. Let's use a dependency tree. I know the compiler nerds out there are screaming "unification algorithm" but I'm just plugging my ears, living in this fantasy world where things work the way I want them to! :-) #ruby #compiler #vm #programming #types

Let's start to teach our little toy compiler about types. #ruby #compiler #vm #programming

For the month of December, I wanted to experiment with some... stuff. I don't know exactly where this going; stay tuned for more to come! #ruby #compiler #vm #programming
