B Compiler to z80 in C++

• The frontend (Lexer, Parser) and first-pass is built with an easy-to-use LALR(1) grammar and parser generator in python, that interfaces with C++ via libpython or json via simdjson
• The backend will focus on modern work in SSA, Sea of Nodes, and compiler optimizations through IR breakthroughs in LLVM, gcc, V8, and related toolchains
