Designing a custom programming language can be the most effective way to solve certain types of problems—especially when precision, safety, or domain-specific expressiveness matters. This book guides you through the full process of designing and implementing your own programming language and interpreter, from language design to execution, using modern C++. By the end, you’ll have a fully working interpreter for a domain-specific language designed to handle network protocols—plus the knowledge and tools to design your own programming language from scratch. - Design a domain-specific language and interpreter from scratch - Write an interpreter that can be embedded into existing environments - Understand how runtime shapes language execution and interpreter design - Reason about language design and runtime trade-offs - Define and implement the execution model of an interpreted language - Implement a lexer, parser, analyzer, and instruction emitter in C++ This book is tailored for intermediate to advanced software developers, particularly those interested in language design and implementation. It's ideal for programmers seeking to expand their skill set and tackle complex problems efficiently. Professionals working in roles such as software engineers, language designers, or system architects will benefit from the practical insights and hands-on experience provided in the book. Good understanding of C++ programming and basic understanding of language design concepts are recommended to fully grasp the content.
