Are you interested in compilers, functional programming, or exploring the intricate language design process? Join us for our regular meetup, where we dive into the fascinating world of compiler development using OCaml!
This is an ongoing series for anyone passionate about the stages of building a compiler—from syntax analysis to semantic analysis—and everything in between. Whether you're just starting or you’re a seasoned compiler enthusiast, this meetup is a great place to:
- Learn about different phases of compiler construction: lexical analysis, parsing, type checking, optimization, and code generation.
- Discuss your experiences and challenges with compiler design, or share insights on using functional programming, especially OCaml, for these tasks.
- Collaborate with others who are at various stages of their compiler projects.
- Explore advanced topics such as abstract syntax trees, control flow analysis, type systems, and more.
Group members come from diverse backgrounds and may focus on different stages of compiler construction, so you'll have the opportunity to both teach and learn. Whether you're interested in theory, implementation, or optimization, there’s something for everyone.
This is also a space to chat about compilers in general, the role of functional programming in compiler design, and share cool projects from the community.
Come ready to code, discuss, and dive deep into compiler theory and practice!
Who should join:
- OCaml enthusiasts
- Compiler hobbyists and experts
- Functional programming lovers
- Developers interested in language design
No matter your experience level, this is the place for you if you're passionate about compilers!
What to bring:
- A laptop if you'd like to code together
- Any compiler project ideas or questions you want to discuss
We look forward to seeing you there!
