Morfa – new programming language – general purpose and DSL-friendly

In plain words

Morfa is a general-purpose programming language designed to be friendly for creating domain-specific languages. Launched in 2015, it targets developers who want a flexible foundation for building specialized programming tools and languages. The language combines general programming capabilities with features that make it easier to define custom syntax and semantics for particular problem domains.

  NESFab – Programming language for making NES games2023 · pubby.games · ▲298

  This is a long-running personal project I've had to write an optimizing compiler from scratch. Everything was done by me, including the lexer/parser, SSA-based IR, high-performance data structures, and code generator. Originally I wasn't targeting the NES. It started as a scripting language, then it morphed into a C++ replacement, and then finally I turned it into what it is today. The large scope of the project and colorful history means it's still a little rough around the edges, but it's now working well enough to post.
