Kaleido is supposed to be a toy language that I'm implementing in accordance to the LLVM tutorial. My aim is to learn the LLVM infrastructure and APIs effectively.

The original tutorial notes that it doesn't the "best engineering practices" to teach the more important concepts - such as how to implement a lexer. In contrast to this, I intend to maintain as much readability as possible.

I'm also not implementing things the tutorial way to get a feel for things myself.

Somehow, I can't even get the code to compile! C++ compilers are so bloody stuck in the past that they do not allow for simple cyclic dependencies in type definitions. This lead to me using all sorts of class DeclarationOnly; hoping it would compile. But oh goodness! Clang really tried, but even that brave soul couldn't. What's worse is that all this time, Clion was able to work with these cyclic type definitions perfectly fine! Literally every compiler allows this! 😭😭😭😭 I'll do this whole thing again but in the much better alternative : Rust. I wish I had known Rust earlier when I started the project. Aight, I'm out, peace!
