My Journey Into Compiler Design

During my HatchDev program at Nithub, I was inspired by one great software engineer, David Dada, to take a closer look at compiler design. That spark eventually led me to one of the most interesting programming books I’ve read so far: Crafting Interpreters by Robert Nystrom.
What makes this book special is that it’s really two things in one:

A hands-on guide to building interpreters (by following along with the implementation of a language called Lox)
A deep dive into fundamental programming concepts like data structures, algorithms, and programming language theory.
