Comment on Prysma: Anatomy of an LLVM Compiler Built from Scratch in 8 Weeks

Comments

This is a compiler development project I started about 8 weeks ago. I’m a CEGEP student, and since systems engineering of this scale isn’t taught at my level, I decided to build my own low-level ecosystem from scratch. Prysma isn’t just a student project; it’s a complete language and a modular infrastructure designed with the constraints of industrial production tools in mind. This document is a technical dissection of the architecture, my engineering choices, and the effort invested in the project.
