Help me find: interactive tutorial for a JavaScript scheme interpreter

2 pointsby mjdowneyabout 2 years ago
Does anybody remember this, posted on HN?<p>It was an interactive tutorial on a single page web app, where you have a code editor, some explanation for what the code is doing, and arrows to skip forward or backwards in the tutorial. You can then edit the code and see different results.<p>IIRC the code was in JavaScript and it created a basic lisp&#x2F;scheme interpreter.<p>It explained succinctly concepts of tokenizing&#x2F;parsing, lexing, AST, etc. with these examples.<p>I&#x27;ve googled for:<p>- web app showing how to build an interpreter &#x2F; compiler, complete with lexer, parser, ast - hacker news interactive interpreter lexer ast tutorial javascript - hacker news writing a compiler tutorial spa interactive ast lexer tokenizer parser<p>with no luck.<p>Thank you for any help!
