What I learned from tinkering with programming languages in the last 34 days

For some reason my OG post has flagged by mods. I won't complain but it is still weird. I began toying around with AI coding in december 2025. I won't lie. My projects are almost all AI generated although I take effort in understanding the theory behind each project. You can check my first attempt at a PL on my github , a project called VII. I've learned a lot in this process. (note: function syntax is a bit bad honestly, i will plan on improving) This is my latest project https://github.com/alonsovm44/tc-lang

10 keywords only, that's really minimal. Would love to see how it handles a bigger project. Nice work for 34 days.

Cool little project! You might find inspiration from Jordan Hubbard's nanolang project:

One pro-tip: You will not really understand the theory behind a language or programming unless you write your own code and solve hard problems yourself. So, mix some of that into your projects.
