“Debootstrapping without Archeology — Stacked Implementations in Camlboot”
https://programming-journal.org/2022/6/13/
Neat article by N. Courant, @roptat, and G. Scherer on #OCaml bootstrapping using the #Guile-based Camlboot interpreter (yes!). Includes a detailed overview of #bootstrapping work, including work by @janneke & co. 👍
That’s an impressive achievement; let’s hope it can inspire other language implementors!
Maybe the #Haskell / #GHC folks are next?
