More like a “C++ [1] compiler”.

[1] restrictions may apply

To be honest, that's most C++ compilers.

Most C++ compilers still implement most of the C++ standard. This thing basically implements C, and adds methods to structs.

Those parts were ripped out of the standard. (The big one is export templates, where the expert compiler implementers when asked for feedback about how to implement it said "don't").
