A Brainfuck compiler implemented in the Nix expression language.
The question everyone is probably asking when they see this: why?
I was talking with a friend about esoteric programming languages, and they brought up the Nix DSL at some point. I pointed out that it was Turing-complete and could technically be used as a general-purpose language, to an extent. After that, I thought about it and said "Well, you could probably make a compiler in Nix!" Oh, I regret that. We made a bet and said I would get $10 if I could make one for a small language. So, here we are.
Was it worth it?
I got $10, so yes.
I made it a flake overlay, because I like flakes. You can probably fetch the
repository directly with fetchFromGitHub and import it as well. Check out an
example in the example/ directory for usage, though I doubt you should be
using this in the first place.
