DMD Compiler as a Library: A Call to Arms

From dlang.org•Jul 18, 2025•4m read time

The D Language Foundation is working to transform the DMD compiler into a flexible library to boost developer tool creation and language adoption. The project involves eliminating code duplication in ASTBase by extracting semantic analysis information from AST nodes. While progress has been slow due to the complexity and extensive refactoring required, this presents an excellent opportunity for new contributors to learn compiler development while providing real value to the project.
