Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/mohitmishra786/amILearningEnough/issues/6

Description:
I would like to propose adding a roadmap for learning compilers to this repository. Compilers are a critical part of software development, and understanding how they work can deepen one's knowledge of programming languages, optimization, and system-level programming. This roadmap would include:

  1. Why Learn Compilers?

    • Understand the inner workings of programming languages.
    • Gain insights into code optimization and performance.
    • Learn about parsing, code generation, and intermediate representations.
    • Explore intermediate/advanced topics like incremental compilation and JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation.

  2. A Step-by-Step Roadmap

    • Beginner: Introduction to compilers, lexing, and parsing.
    • Intermediate: Code generation, intermediate representations (e.g., AST, IR).
    • Advanced: Optimization techniques, type systems, and incremental compilation.

  3. Resources
    (e.g.): Engineering a Compiler, An Incremental Approach to Compiler Construction

  4. Example Project
    namin/inc: an incremental approach to compiler construction

BTW, I have a small project, Crust, which is a simple compiler written in three days while I was learning Rust. I plan to polish it into a more educational resource for learning compiler construction. It could serve as a starting point for others interested in writing their own compilers.

  1. Advanced Topics
    • Interesting algorithms used in optimizing compilers (e.g., polyhedral model, symbolic reasoning).
    • Tensor Compilers

Why I'm Interested:
I have been working on industrial-level compilers for several years and am passionate about sharing knowledge in this area. I believe this roadmap would be a valuable addition to the repository, complementing the existing low-level programming resources.

Next Steps:
If this proposal is interested, I am willing to help draft the roadmap, curate resources, and provide examples.

Hello @onehr ,

It is a great idea, please go ahead and create a draft
Feel free to let me know if you need any help from my side, I do have some good resources on compiler which we can eventually add once the draft is merged
