Riassunto

Unlock the Black Box of Programming Languages.

If you’ve ever wondered how programming languages actually work—or dreamed of building your own—this book is your starting point. Compiler Design for Developers takes you behind the scenes to show how compilers, interpreters, and language parsers are constructed from scratch.

Whether you're a backend developer, a language enthusiast, or a curious programmer, you'll gain a solid foundation in lexical analysis, parsing, syntax trees, semantic analysis, code generation, and optimization. Through real, runnable code examples in Python, C++, or JavaScript, you'll learn to turn tokens into syntax, grammar into meaning, and source code into machine-readable instructions.

By the end of this book, you’ll understand the inner workings of interpreters and compilers—and even have your own mini programming language or scripting engine.

🧠 What You’ll Learn

✅ The stages of compilation: lexer, parser, semantic analyzer, code generator
✅ Writing a lexer using regex or state machines
✅ Building a parser using recursive descent or parser generators
✅ Generating and traversing abstract syntax trees (ASTs)
✅ Implementing scoping, type checking, and error handling
✅ Creating bytecode or intermediate representations
✅ Basics of optimization and garbage collection
✅ How modern compilers (like LLVM, GCC, and JavaScript engines) are structured
✅ Building interpreters for custom scripting languages
✅ Tools like ANTLR, Flex/Bison, and PEG.js
