## What it is
A curated list of resources on compilers, interpreters, and runtimes, including books, papers, courses, tutorials, tools, and open-source projects. It has a strong educational bias, aimed at people learning to build programming languages and language infrastructure.

## Use cases
- learn how to build a compiler
- find books on compiler construction
- resources for writing an interpreter
- study virtual machine and runtime implementation
- find parser and lexer tools
- courses and tutorials on programming language implementation

## When to choose
- you are learning compiler or interpreter construction
- you want a curated index of language implementation resources
- you need educational toy projects to study

## When to avoid
- you need a working compiler toolchain rather than a resource list
- you want production compiler infrastructure itself

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: compiler, interpreter, documentation, developer-tools
- domain: compilers, programming-languages, tutorials, awesome-lists, education
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: awesome-list, curated-list, virtual-machine, runtime, parser, education
