Truffled PureScript
June 8, 2015 ยท View on GitHub
Truffle is an API for writing AST interpreters on the JVM. When combined with Graal, Truffle can partially evaluate and specialise AST nodes to generate efficient machine code.
PureScript is a small strongly typed programming language.
This project combines both together so that we can run PureScript on the JVM.
Implementation
purescript-corefn-gen
Takes PureScript (since 0.7) code, compiles to the intermediate CoreFn representation and dumps it out as JSON.
purescript-truffle-eval
Takes the CoreFn JSON, constructs Truffle nodes and evaluates the root node.
