simple-bytecode-vm

A bytecode virtual machine and compiler written in Rust.

Install

cargo add simple-vm

Example

let x = 5;
while x > 0 {
    print x;
    x = x - 1;
}

Features

• Basic arithmetic (add, subtract, multiply, divide)
• Variables
• While loops
• If/else statements
• Print statements

How it works

The VM takes your code, breaks it into simple instructions using a compiler, and runs them one by one. Like when you write x = x + 1, it becomes:

Load x Add 1 Save back to x

Usage

use simple_vm::{VM, compiler::{Parser, Compiler}};

let code = "let x = 5; print x;";
let bytecode = Compiler::new().compile(Parser::new(code).parse()?);
VM::new(bytecode, 1024).run()?;
