SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

So I have had an itch for a while now, and have decided to scratch it.

I have started work on a from scratch B3D compiler. It is designed to run in a browser, and target the browser.

Think JSFiddle - but you can type in B3D code.

There are a number of parts to making this work:

1) The compiler. This will compile Blitz code to Javascript
2) The B3D runtime. This will need to be written using WebGL.
3) Some useable editor/toolchain/whatever to let people use the above 2

I have started on 1.

So far I have a working lexer, and work has begun on the analyser/parser.

Oh yeah, it's written in ClojureScript (a variant of Lisp ) https://github.com/jamesmintram/b3djs

I will consider the project a success when you can  compile + run all of the original sample programs that came with Blitz3D

Good project!
