Writing a C Compiler, in Zig

Source: Hacker News

Introduction

This is a series of articles I wrote while writing paella, following Nora Sandler’s Writing a C Compiler. It was both an exercise to learn Zig and a way to waste time instead of looking for work, as I am currently “between jobs”. I did not edit them as I collect them here outside of fixing some broken links.
