Compiler Prism

Compiler Prism is a native macOS app for curious developers and computer science students. Write or open a small program and explore how source becomes tokens, structure, types, intermediate form, bytecode, and real host-toolchain artifacts. Features: • Four-pane Lab workspace with live source, architecture map, phase artifacts, and inspector • Trace workspace to step through bytecode execution • Diff workspace to compare primary and secondary host toolchains side by side • Architecture overview showing inspection coverage across the full compiler journey • Bundled examples and packaged teaching demonstrations Compiler Prism teaches compilation visually. It does not replace Xcode and does not upload your source code.
