A developer shares their weekend project of building a complete compiler from scratch, creating a simplified BASIC variant called toybasic that transpiles to Go code. The implementation uses three stages: a lexer built with nex for tokenization, a parser using goyacc for syntax tree generation, and a custom Go compiler that walks the tree to generate equivalent Go code. The project demonstrates practical compiler construction using modern tools while working with a simple but complete programming language
