    I think it is fantastic to have more compiler implementations. It was probably also a fun project to code. What I find lacking in web pages is a motivation. What makes it different from popular compilers? Where is this project heading? What would be potential benefits/use-cases for using this compiler vs others, lessons learned, etc.?

      I agree on it being fantastic.

      For your other questions I found these in the linked text

        Those sections don't really provide details on the author's motivations to be honest
