Lithium is an attempt at several things at once: | ||
|
||
* An assembler for x86 CPUs, written in Clojure and using | ||
Clojure S-expressions as its input data. This part has been | ||
first announced in [this blog post][1]. | ||
* A compiler for a toy Lisp-like language, using that assembler as a | ||
backend. The compiler is being written following the guidelines | ||
found in a paper "[An Incremental Approach to Compiler Construction][2]." | ||
|
||
The purposes of Lithium are, first and foremost, to learn and to have fun. | ||
