I’m just looking at it for the first time myself, but isn’t the compiler in https://github.com/bendlang/bend/blob/main/bend2/comp.ts ?
replyClaiming super fast compile times with super fast runtimes faster than LLVM and the compiler is a single typescript file 6k characters long of AI slop. Jesus.

replythe compiler is in comp.ts, alongside the runtime
replyit is not a pretty file and it has a lot of gambiarra and AI slop for now
if you want to read something worthy, read the kernel (bend.ts)
Glad to see a new release of Bend, fascinating cutting-edge stuff.
replyI had to look up "gambiarra": a Brazilian expression that means to use improvised methods to solve a problem with any avaiable material.
Totally understandable, I think you did the right thing by releasing early, even if it's still in rough shape, to get some public feedback. This forum can be a hit-or-miss, sometimes even great projects are not appreciated (and the opposite too). But I imagine some people are in the target audience who will see the project and actually explore the language, and follow along with its development.
