TB Tilde: A Disruptive LLVM Alternative?
2025-01-24
Yasser's TB Tilde aims to replace LLVM, boasting superior compile speed and a smaller footprint. Early tests show its preprocessor is twice as fast as Clang's. TB Tilde uses a 'Sea of Nodes' IR, features a simple type system and thread-safe modules, supports JIT and AOT compilation, and even directly outputs linked executables. The project is actively under development, targeting March 2024 for Cuik compiler self-hosting on Windows, with optimizer improvements to follow.
