BlitzLLVM is a BlitzBasic (Blitz2D, Blitz3D, BlitzPlus) compiler built on the LLVM compiler backend. It turns a .bb program into one self-contained executable.

• Building: compile BlitzLLVM from source on Windows, Linux and macOS.
• Installation: install a nightly build or your own build, and compile your first program.
• Releasing: publish a release from a version tag.
• Environment-Variables: the BLITZLLVM_ variables that change what programs and tools do.
• Warnings: the -W options of blitzcc, the warning levels and -Werror.
• blitz-format: format .bb source code with a style that a .blitz-format file sets.
• Differences: where BlitzLLVM behaves differently from the original Blitz3D and BlitzPlus.

Command reference

• Language: variables, operators, control flow, functions, arrays, types and data.
• Command-Index: every command from A to Z.
• Language-Features: control flow, functions, loops, types, keywords, math, strings, random numbers and time.
• BlitzBasic: what all three dialects share, such as files, 2D graphics, input and audio.
• Blitz3D: entities, cameras, lights, meshes, textures, collisions and the rest of the 3D world.
• BlitzPlus: windows, gadgets, events and system access.
