The Challenge
Designing a flexible AST and VM in Rust that can support variable mutability, complex operators, and custom data types without sacrificing performance.
The Solution
Built an AST-based interpreter and a separate compiler + VM pipeline in Rust, leveraging enums for node types and a bytecode VM to execute compiled instructions efficiently.
