Zig AstGen: AST => ZIR

Read Original

This technical article details the AstGen stage of the Zig compiler, which transforms the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) into the Zig Intermediate Representation (ZIR). It explains the structure and purpose of ZIR, provides a code example showing ZIR output, and discusses why ZIR is an untyped IR. It is part of a series on Zig compiler internals and is aimed at developers interested in compiler design and the Zig language.
