LX Language

This is my custom compiled language written in C++ based off of the LLVM toolchain. Do not use the language in it's current state unless you are insane.

Planned features

• Variables
• Operations (Maths + BinOp)
• Functions
• More than just int as a type
• Structs / Classes (Polymorphism + vtables)

Stuff I want to do later

• I/O manager (Console, Files)
• Debugger support
• Extensions for vscode / vs22
• Build system
• SSA (Static single assignment)
• LX-Core (Basic Standard Lib)
• SIMD (Single instruction, multiple data)
• Built in features for multi-language code (C, C++, C#, Rust...)
• Custom Linker written in rust
• Package manager
• Custom optimiser (+ O3 in Clang)
• Complicated LX-Core:
  • Graphics APIs support
  • Networking support
  • WinAPI compatiability

Stuff I might do later

• JIT (Just in time compiler) / Interpreter
• Different compiler backends
• Python support
• Non-windows OS support
