About the Project

Fly Project want to build a new programming language: compiled, high-level, general purpose, with particular attention to simplicity, readability, multi-paradigms with optional Garbage Collector.

Build with

This project is a fork of Clang so it is based on LLVM:

• Clang
• LLVM

Getting Started

Fly is written in C++ and it is a fork of Clang.

Prerequisites

In order to build this project you need:

• CMake (min version 3.24.0)
• C++ 17
• LLVM 20.1.8

Usage

Linux

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/fly-lang/fly.git
   

2. Install build dependencies for your distribution:

   Debian / Ubuntu

   sudo apt install build-essential libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev libtinfo-dev
   # stacktrace support (debug purpose)
   sudo apt install binutils-dev libdw-dev libdwarf-dev
   

   Fedora

   sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++ make libxml2-devel zlib-devel ncurses-devel
   # stacktrace support (debug purpose)
   sudo dnf install binutils-devel elfutils-devel libdwarf-devel
   

   RHEL / CentOS Stream

   sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++ make libxml2-devel zlib-devel ncurses-devel
   # stacktrace support (debug purpose)
   sudo dnf install binutils-devel elfutils-devel libdwarf-devel
   

   openSUSE

   sudo zypper install gcc gcc-c++ make libxml2-devel zlib-devel ncurses-devel
   # stacktrace support (debug purpose)
   sudo zypper install binutils-devel libdw-devel libdwarf-devel
   

   Arch Linux

   sudo pacman -S base-devel libxml2 zlib ncurses
   # stacktrace support (debug purpose)
   sudo pacman -S libdwarf elfutils
   

3. Configure and build:

   cd fly
   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ..
   cmake --build .
   

4. Run tests (must be run from the build directory):

   ctest
   

macOS

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/fly-lang/fly.git
   

2. Install Xcode Command Line Tools:

   xcode-select --install
   

3. Install build dependencies via Homebrew:

   brew install cmake libxml2 zlib
   

4. Configure and build:

   cd fly
   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ..
   cmake --build .
   

5. Run tests:

   ctest
   

Windows

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone --config core.autocrlf=false https://github.com/fly-lang/fly.git
   

2. Install dependencies via vcpkg:

   vcpkg install zstd:x64-windows
   

3. Configure and build:

   cd fly
   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="%VCPKG_INSTALLATION_ROOT%\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake"
   cmake --build . --config Release
   

4. Run tests:

   ctest -C Release
