## Where self-hosting stands ## Where self-hosting stands
The compiler is written in Finch and nothing else. `bootstrap/build.sh` builds it The compiler is written in Finch and nothing else, and it is `main` of `github.com/Nexoniarz/Finch`
from the seed (its own IR, Linux x86-64 and ARM64) and then from itself, and (`before-bootstrap` there is the all-C++ compiler, kept as the backup). `bootstrap/build.sh` builds it from a seed (its
checks the two make identical IR. It passes the 107 tests: programs, refusals, own IR) and then from itself, and checks the two make identical IR. 110 tests pass, also under valgrind with no leaks.
`-g` builds, a shared library and the language server. The work is on the Seeds: Linux x86-64 and ARM64; Windows x86-64 (runs under Wine, compiles itself and passes every test program); macOS
`finish-finch` branch of `github.com/Nexoniarz/Finch`; `before-bootstrap` there ARM64 and x86-64 (made with the 11.3 SDK, checked as IR only — nobody has run them on a Mac). The language has enums

itself.
Left: the compiler does not run on macOS or Windows yet (it needs a seed made
with those systems' headers; programs for them are built from Linux with
`--target`), and `main` is switched to this branch only when the author says so,
after merging their local `embed` work.
