- Get, build and start the Graffiticode host app (https://github.com/graffiticode/graffiticode).
- Clone and initialize the starter artcompiler (L0) as a new language (e.g. L0).
$ git clone [email protected]:graffiticode/L0.git$ cd L0$ npm install
- Start your compiler as a local service to make sure that all is well.
$ cd ../L0$ make
- Make sure everything is good.
- Visit your local GC server (e.g. http://localhost:3000/lang?id=0) to test.
- Paste into the code view:
"hello, world!"... - See "hello, world!" in the form view.
- Design a language that allows you to say things that are interesting and beautiful.
- Edit ./src/lexicon.js to define a vocabulary for that language.
- Edit ./src/compiler.js to translate the ASTs produced from GC into object code that expresses the output of that language.
- Edit ./src/viewer.js to render that object code in an interesting and beautiful way.
- Test your changes.
$ make- Edit the code in the code view.
- Repeat to taste.
This command will restart the dev server when changes to src/, index.js, or package.json are detected.
$ npm run watch
