The RubyX approach works, but to create an mri compatible ruby will take many more man-years than i have. %p RubyX is here to =succeed "," do =link_to "empower you" , "/project/motivation.html" to make your ruby shine as much as you like. .tripple %h2.center Status %p The RubyX compiler is working, and the =link_to "architecture", "/rubyx/layers.html" has been refined over several years. %p While the =ext_link "parser" , "https://github.com/whitequark/parser" parses 100% of ruby, currently basics are implemented: %ul %li Object oriented =succeed "." do =link_to "calling semantics" , "/rubyx/calling.html" %li Dynamic = succeed "." do =link_to "method resolution" ,"/rubyx/method_resolution.html" %li Control Structures, variables and assignment, integer operators. %li Object based =succeed "." do =link_to "memory" ,"/rubyx/memory.html" %li A minimal Runtime of = succeed "," do =link_to "classes, types" , "/rubyx/parfait.html" methods and basic types. %li =ext_link "Risc machine abstraction" , "https://github.com/ruby-x/rubyx/tree/master/lib/risc" (includes extensible instruction) %li A minimal Arm and Elf implementation to create = succeed "." do %b working binaries %h2.center Upcomping work %p Obviously there is still a lot of work, here are just the next few topics %ul %li Benchmarks for calling and integer (ie fibo) %li Blocks %li Start stdlib with String By then we may be in the foothills, but nowhere near even basecamp, let alone there. .tripple %h2.center Docs %p The short introduction is under the =link_to "architecture" , "/rubyx/layers.html" menu. %p To get to know the system, there is also an interpreter and a basic =succeed "." do =link_to "visual debugger" , "rubyx/debugger.html" %p The =link_to "about", "/project/motivation.html" section has some info of when and how this started.
