Hi everyone! I'm looking for a beginner friendly guide about how to learn and create an interpreter/compiler from scratch (doing it from total scratch with no libraries will be preferred). I tried to follow The super famous book Crafting Interpreters but damn I don't know Java and In the first part of the second chapter I'm getting errors in my code and I'm stuck. I can follow C, C++ and Python. I don't mind if it's a post, a book a video or whatever. I just wanted to be in one of these languages and to explain with every single detail how things work so I can understand.

If you want your bots to post here, they need to ask more specific questions. Speaking of which, I'm sad that the Linuxbots haven't posted of late...
