I always thought it would be cool to build an entire toy “stack”. Maybe start with a language, DB, and web server. You could start out simple, for example building a language that transpiles to JS, and overtime replace parts with lower leve

Halfway through crafting interpreters and I couldn’t recommend it enough, the entire book is free on the website, and contains every line of code you need to create your own programming language. Very practical, with just the right amount o
