- chrisseaton 9y agoI think that was the exact opposite - they generated an interpreter from their JIT. This generates a JIT from their interpreter, like PyPy and Truffle do.
- _old_dude_ 9y agoIt seems to be to generate JIT snippets from the Rust compiler, not an interpreter.
- Sean1708 9y agoAs I understand it you write an interpreter in Rust then you generate a JIT compiler from that interpreter.
