Installation and First Run

Getting Started

This guide gets you from source code to a running KodPix program.

Requirements

• Linux x86-64
• NASM 2.15+
• GNU ld

Build the Compiler

./build.sh

The compiler binary is created as ./kdx.

Compile and Run a Program

./kdx examples/hello.kdx -o hello
./hello

One-command helper:

./scripts/run_kdx.sh examples/add_two_vars.kdx

Output Modes

• Assembly only:

./kdx examples/hello.kdx -S -o hello.s

• Object only:

./kdx examples/hello.kdx -c -o hello.o

First Program

function int main() {
    println("Hello, KodPix");
    return 0;
}
