Summary

This project aims to create a new, faster Monkey implementation by rebuilding key components – the lexer, parser, AST, and object system – alongside a tree-walking evaluator. The goal is to develop a custom Monkey compiler and virtual machine from scratch, providing a continuously evolving, parallel system for experimentation and improvement.
