This repository is the companion to the book Crafting Interpreters. It contains the full source code for two interpreters (one in C and one in Java), the Markdown source of the book, the tooling to weave prose and code into a website, and build scripts to generate the executable interpreters. The book aims to teach from the ground up how to build a full-featured scripting language (called Lox) with parsing, AST, compiler / VM, garbage collection, classes, and more.

Features

  • Full interpreter implementation in C (clox)
  • Full interpreter / bytecode VM in Java (jlox)
  • Markdown source of book chapters and text prose
  • Static site generator tooling to compose book + code into HTML
  • Test suite infrastructure for the interpreters
  • Build scripts / Makefile orchestration (build book, run interpreters, generate site)
