🔨 Compiler - Build Your Custom Mini Language

🚀 Getting Started

Welcome to the Compiler project! This application allows you to create and manage your own mini programming language. The project has four key stages: a lexical analyzer, a parser, a semantic analyzer, and a MIPS code generator. Each stage builds on the last, providing a complete flow from writing code to executing it.

🎉 Download & Install

To get started, you need to download the latest version of the Compiler. You can find the software on the Releases page.

How to Download
