Jaseem Abid presents an educational, step-by-step approach to building a compiler incrementally, based on a classic paper.

Papers We Love London presents: Jaseem Abid on "An Incremental Approach to Compiler Construction". This is a paper Jaseem has been toying around for a very long time. He spent quite a lot of his weekends hacking on an implementation (github.com/jaseemabid/inc). It's an educational approach to writing your first compiler and it should be quite valuable to a large number of everyday software engineers. Jaseem will be showing some code, present a heavily annotated paper and leave people with some ideas that they might be able to play around with.

On “Do you know any interesting talks about PL design/compilers/interpreters?”

This talk by Jaseem Abid is more about compiler design + construction and less about programming languages themselves but I really liked it!
