Transpiling.
Standard textbook on compiler construction. It covers all the essential topics, including lexical analysis, parsing, semantic analysis, and code generation.
Covers advanced topics in compiler design and implementation, including optimization techniques, code generation, and runtime systems.
Provides a comprehensive overview of compiler construction, from the basics to advanced topics such as optimization and code generation.
Provides a practical guide to compiler implementation.
Classic work on the Lex and Yacc tools, which are widely used for generating lexical analyzers and parsers.
Is not specifically about transpilers, but it does teach you how to create a language compiler from scratch. This compiler will translate from one language (called the source language) to another target language. This will give you a hands-on understanding of how a basic compiler works.
Covers the basics of programming from first principles and includes a chapter on writing a transpiler.
Covers the Rust programming language, which can be used to write transpilers.
Interpreters are closely related to transpilers. teaches you how to write your own interpreter in Go.
Provides a gentle introduction to compilers.
