  • rename free() methods to deinit() to follow Zig conventions
    • it seems like the allocator uses the word free but other data structs (e.g. ArrayList) use deinit
  • < works but <= doesn't seem to work
    • ... perhaps a bug due to popping numbers off the stack?
  • Do memory allocator as described in the book
    • likely need a wrapper around use of allocator
  • Allow easily setting debug flags at compilation time
    • currently, they are hard-coded to true/false in code
  • Try out a zig linter https://github.com/nektro/ziglint
  • Make Enum naming more consistent and succinct
    • not sure what's the Zig convention for enum naming. Shoutcase? Camelcase?
    • e.g. Precendence.PREC_NONE => Precedence.None
    • e.g. OpCode.OpNil => OpCode.Nil
  • Refactor parser into a testable struct
  • Figure out how to do imports without importing the tests
  • bug: missing ; (e.g. in repl) results in segfault 
    [line 1] Error: advance() error
prefixRule TokenType.EOF: ParseRule{ .prefix = fn() void@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, .infix = fn() void@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, .precedence = Precedence.PREC_NONE }
zsh: segmentation fault  zig run main.zig
  • Explore how to get doc strings working (e.g. functions) and showing up in VSCode
    • /// works but the comment shows up below a huge struct def, so not so useful.
  • Use Zig error handling
    • one place: compiler errors like consume(TokenType.SEMICOLON, "Expect ';' after variable declaration."). We already have fns like err and errorAt
  • (someday) code profiling / speed
    • could profile some of the open-source impls too, for comparison
  • repl bug 
    > var a = 10; print a;
thread 8126636 panic: index out of bounds
    vs 
    > { var a = 5; print a; }
5
  • test colors aren't showing up in GithubActions
