What is Introduction to Compilers?
Introduction to Compilers is a Swift Playground that provides a high-level overview of how modern compilers operate. It breaks down compiler architecture into understandable stages including parsing, intermediate representation generation, and optimization. The project was created as an educational tool for the WWDC 2017 Scholarship application.
Apple developers and students interested in learning compiler theory through interactive Swift-based examples, particularly those preparing for WWDC scholarships or studying compiler design.
It offers a visual, hands-on approach to learning compiler concepts within the familiar Swift Playgrounds environment, making complex theory more accessible than traditional textbooks or documentation.
