Learn to create programming language and create a compiler for programming language from scratch
Welcome to this course, where you would learn how you create a programming language with some functionalities, right from the beginning in short amount of time. The key concepts involved in a programming languages are Compiler Design and Theory of Automata. You might need familiarity of some concepts in these domains, and you need to be familiar with Java Programming language. Although if you don't have any exposure to these terms, you can still benefit from this course, but you should try to learn more on Compiler Design and Automata later. These are the core building blocks of a programming language, being complex topics, and we tried to simplify a few of them and provide a quick roadmap of steps involved in developing a completely new Programming Language.
Before heading to create a Programming language, you may need to be clear with what kind of Programming language you would like to develop. Just put a sheet of paper and write your requirements beforehand, based on these questions:
Will it be based on a Compiler or an Interpreter or both?
Does it require UNICODE literals (for non-English syntax, like Hindi, Tamil, Chinese, Russian, Arabic, etc.)
Or can it be written with ASCII (for English syntax or Roman script)
Would it require bytecode, or does it directly convert to machine code?
If it requires bytecode, can you use any existing bytecode program like JVM?
Will it be an Object Oriented language like Java, Python or Procedural like C?
Would you require bootstrapping (writing compiler in the same NEWÂ language you are creating) or not?
Would you require to manually perform operations like Lexical Analysis, Parsing, Syntax tree, etc or will you Automate some of these?
You can ask yourself more such questions, and here you will be learning to create a programming language that will follow this set of features:
It will be based on Compiler
It will be implemented in ASCII (as the new language is based on English)
Yes, it will be implementing bytecode, and based on JVM (Java Virtual Machine)
It will be a simple procedural language, but you can add Object Oriented and other feature later.
Its compiler will be written in Java, No bootstrapping involved.
Some parts of the compiler will be automated
In the beginning of this course, you will learn about the Grammar. You will learn how to create a grammar file and what are the next steps involved in creating the programming language. Next you will be learning about Lexical Analysis, Parsing and Compiler Design. In the following section you will learn how to create a simple calculator based programming language, and in the last section you will learn how to enhance language to support variables. You would be able to print strings, perform operations on variables. Later you can add control statements in a similar manner.
On completion of this course you could create your OWN programming Language,
And you would be able to design your own compiler implementing all the concepts
behind such as including LEXICAL Analysis, PARSING, etc.

I am Self-Taught developer who had worked on various platforms using varied languages, and involved in various Projects both Open Source and Proprietary.I have developed Web and Android Applications, chrome Extension, worked on various frameworks, fixed bugs for some projects, and explored numerous others. I think education and learning should be free and open, not be bound with restrictions like...
I am an Instructor, Devops engineer, machine learning enthusiast, cloud expert and passionate developer.I have authored 78 courses with over 115,000 students worldwide across 175+ countries on wide array of technologies like devops, containerization, machine learning, Linux, programming languages and cloud computing platforms like Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Service and IBM Cloud.
The most of the course only Explains the process of Creating Programming Language with Presentation, I was excepting that this course will teach more about how to code our own language because I already know the process of creating language, that tokenizing, lexing, parsing, compiling. I want to learn how to implement this process in real time.
And also in this course they are not teaching how to install ANTLR in our System.
Don't Buy this course,
Not Recommend for beginners because this course skips the steps of installation & many other stuff which may beginner don't know.
Not Recommend for Intermediates or those who knows the process of creating programming language.
You can simply understand the process of creating programming language from google for free then why to waste money on this useless course.
So far, so good...
( after the first lesson)Werd to ask for an opinion after a single lesson but this is just a representation of my confidence that I will learn what I'm after during this course. (after 6 lessons) What was that ... There are some elements which are ok. but there are many many free resources with much better explanations and much better content. I paid for the course to expect Pro-quality content and this was almost slide show in power point. Even if the statement was NOT introduced and implemented. I would give a single star, but I'm familiar with the subject a bit so maybe for a beginner, this course would have some value, but If You are considering to pay for this course I would suggest to invert 79min of Your time to google this subject and find everything that is freely accessible and You will be surprised. Personally I'm disappointed.
I got quick support from instructor whenever i raised any query or asked any doubt.
Having a background in electronics, i dont have a programing background. Lessons are easy to understand for person like me, learnt compiler designing, and creating a programming language.
nice course
nice course
good for absolute beginners in compiler design. Although there are much for advanced learners as well.
He speakes too slow, slow is good, too slow not, also the audio have a quite low quality
