Compiler Prism is a native macOS app for curious developers and computer science students
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.
