Why care about extension languages? My presentation deals with this issue at length, but a nice summary can be found in the Guile manual: this freedom covers modifying and rebuilding the C code; but if the program also provides an extension language, that is usually a much friendlier and lower-barrier-of-entry way for the user to start making their own changes. Most importantly, he provides some answers as to why you would want to create your own DSL and discusses why he chooses to create DSL's on top of the Boo language. Type systems, and assembly languages. Say we wanted to build a feature like require , which is known in many scripting languages, in Scala. It's a nice introduction to compiler design, and you can download the C# source for the sample compiler that's discussed. Suddenly meta-programming was about to become a boat-load easier, as it wouldn't require IL generation, Expression Tree building or other esoteric techniques – just plain text. Roslyn principally is a rewrite of the C# Compiler in C#, and the VB.NET compiler in VB.NET. The article is a walkthrough on the creation of a simple programming language and a corresponding compiler that targets the .NET CLR virtual machine. It is an open source implementation of Microsoft's .Net Framework based on the ECMA standards for C# and the Common Language Runtime. Perhaps this will be the starting point for the creation of your own programming language. Sometime later, the What is Roslyn? How to Compile and Run C# .NET application on Ubuntu - mono. Mono is a software platform designed to allow developers to easily create cross platform applications. In that spirit, I would like to re-make the argument for Guile as the GNU extension language. Historically both compilers were written in C++, which has hampered the progression of the languages almost to the point of stagnancy*.
