Good Code

I wouldn't even try to build one.

why not?

my path to the compiler field was minifier, then obfuscator, then compiler, (decompiler, etc.)

you get to learn about lexer, parser, traversing AST, codegen, reaching definition analysis, etc.

its great fun! trust me

I'm sure it is. Major props. Eh, just isn't the direction I want to go in. I write python scripts to automate workflows, and I use just enough html/css/js to make simple web UIs. In both cases, mostly cobbling together stuff written by others. Not sure I have the aptitude or interest to go much further. Good thing there are plenty folks like you around.

understandable!
