While the project is young and far from Proof of Concept stage, please keep your contributions to a minimum: something which will not be changing a lot of code or the architecture.

Welcome are: style fixes, bug fixes and fix ideas, clippy warning fixes, typos and formatting etc.

I will be updating these guidelines once the project reaches some sort of stability.

Implementing new BIFs

  1. Visit codegen/otp20/bif.tab and find the BIF you want to add, copy the line.
  2. Visit codegen/implemented_native_funs.tab file, and insert the line.
  3. Run make in root directory once, which will invoke the codegen and show you errors about a missing function.
  4. Copy from another bif, and satisfy the compiler.

Implementing new Opcodes

  1. Visit codegen/otp20/genop.tab and find the opcode you want to implement.
  2. Visit codegen/implemented_ops.tab file, and insert what you intend to add.
  3. Run make in root directory once, which will invoke the codegen and show you errors about a missing struct.
  4. Copy from another opcode, edit the arity, edit the arguments and make it work.
