scriptc

vercel-labs/scriptc · ★ 6.2K

scriptc is an experimental compiler that turns TypeScript and JavaScript into typed IR, readable C, LLVM IR, native assembly/objects, native executables, or WebAssembly modules, producing standalone binaries that do not need Node.js to run.

+15

llvm-project

llvm/llvm-project · ★ 41.1K

LLVM is an open-source toolkit for constructing highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments; this repository holds its source code.

rpcs3

RPCS3/rpcs3 · ★ 20.1K

RPCS3 is the world's first free and open-source PlayStation 3 emulator and debugger, written in C++.

perry

PerryTS/perry · ★ 5K

Perry compiles the TypeScript or JavaScript you already write directly into native machine-code executables for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, watchOS and TV, using SWC to parse and LLVM to generate code, so there is no Node.js runtime or Electron bundle to ship.

  3. #3 · carbon-language/carbon-lang

    carbon-lang

    An experimental successor language to C++: C++-level performance, seamless interop with existing C++ code, and modern, safer foundations. This repo holds its documents, design, and toolchain implementation.

    emscripten

    27.7Kemscripten-core/emscripten · C++

    Emscripten is an open-source compiler that turns C and C++ code into WebAssembly using LLVM and Binaryen, so native codebases can run on the Web, in Node.js, and in other wasm runtimes.

  2. 5

    graal

    21.7Koracle/graal · Java

    GraalVM is a high-performance JDK whose headline trick is ahead-of-time compilation: it turns applications into standalone native executables that start instantly, need no warmup and use fewer resources.

  3. 6

    rpcs3

    20.1KRPCS3/rpcs3 · C++

    RPCS3 is the world's first free and open-source PlayStation 3 emulator and debugger, written in C++.

  4. 7

    tinygo

    17.8Ktinygo-org/tinygo · Go

    TinyGo is an alternative Go compiler for small places: microcontrollers, WebAssembly (wasm/wasi), and command-line tools. It compiles Go code by combining the standard Go tool libraries with LLVM.

  5. 8

    codon

    16.9Kexaloop/codon · Python

    Codon is a high-performance Python implementation that compiles your code straight to native machine code — typically 10-100x faster than vanilla Python on a single thread, on par with C/C++.

  6. 9

    sanitizers

    12.5Kgoogle/sanitizers · C

    A family of runtime checkers that catch memory errors and data races in C and C++ code: AddressSanitizer, MemorySanitizer, ThreadSanitizer, LeakSanitizer and more. This repo is their archived documentation hub.

  7. 10

    numba

    11.2Knumba/numba · Python

    Numba is a Just-In-Time compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code using LLVM, letting numerical functions run near C/Fortran speed without leaving Python.

  8. 11

    bpftrace

    10.4Kbpftrace/bpftrace · C++

    bpftrace is a high-level tracing language and tool for Linux: it uses eBPF to trace the kernel and user applications with minimal overhead.

  9. 12

    scriptc

    scriptc is an experimental compiler that turns TypeScript and JavaScript into typed IR, readable C, LLVM IR, native assembly/objects, native executables, or WebAssembly modules, producing standalone binaries that do not need Node.js to run.

    cppinsights

    4.7Kandreasfertig/cppinsights · C++

    C++ Insights is a Clang-based source-to-source transformation tool that shows C++ code the way the compiler actually sees it, revealing implicit things like compiler-generated special member functions, implicit casts, and what lambdas, range-based for-loops, or auto/decltype actually expand to.

  12. 15

    CalcKernel

    152luxine/CalcKernel · Rust

    CalcKernel (CK) is a statically typed language for writing focused numerical computation kernels that a larger application calls into, rather than a full application-level language.
