Question

Don’t worry, I’m not going to ask that question, yet again…

I am wanting to create my own programming language, just for learning sake.

I don’t want anything other than possibly a few links to head me into the right direction.

MSDN Documentation on C# that is specific to what is required to create a language would be great!

For the time being, all I am wanting to create is a very simple language that allows me to Create a Form, add a control to it, give that control a location, and maybe even some properties like a Text property, or maybe even a Color property. That’s it!

Any help / advice at all is greatly appreciated!

Thank you 🙂

Answer 1

You want a language or some GUI libraries?

They are a little different, you know?

For a language you could start here:

http://www1.idc.ac.il/tecs/plan.html

(it’s a complete course)

or there is this:

This is for targetting the .net VM, so you don’t have to create the VM, and it seems to be very “down to earth”
