I was very much looking forward to this book, pre-purchased it the instant I saw the email it available. I have been enjoying it so far. Best part is that you can follow along with making it in any language, for any input and output language. The author just happens to use Typescript as the language for the compiler, a subset of typescript for the input, and ARM for the output. I'm keeping the same input and output languages for the compiler, but switching to using C++ for actually building the compiler.
