Excited to see another project targeting the QBE back end, from what I can tell it's a great lightweight alternative to LLVM.

Yes it has been fantastic to work with QBE so far. It's way simpler than LLVM, giving you about 70% of the LLVM performance, for 10% of the effort. :)

Only downside is Windows support.

Unfortunately the QBE code is really strange so if you need to make some changes yourself it probably won't be very fun
That's good to know. Can you point to an example?
