This is a very well-written series of articles. I found it a few months ago while researching source-to-source compilation and went thru the entire series. Really easy to understand and follow along.

Well done, Ruslan! The internet needs more content like this. Are you planning to publish this series in book form?


Thank you for the kind words! Re the book form: it is a possibility once I'm done writing the series. And thanks for taking the time to read the articles.


Hey Ruslan, since you’re posting here just wanted to say I love your articles, so much that I make all new hires on my team work through “Let’s Build a Webserver” as part of their onboarding :)

Thanks for your writing, and please post if you ever do turn this material into a book!


That's great! :) Thank you for sharing this. I plan to update that series soon, so stay tuned :)


I second that, the whole series is presented in bite size chucks which build upon the previous lessons.

A lot of thought must have gone into determining how to teach this topic


Thanks for reading.


This is great. For anyone interested in additional material, the following link has also been shared on HN a few times: https://craftinginterpreters.com/
