Course Title: Project: Coding your own HTML language in C

Introduction to Your Journey in Coding Today kicks off an exciting journey where you, as a mid-level C programmer, will elevate your skills and learn how to craft your own language with a focus on creating console-based graphical user interfaces for C applications. This course aims to push your boundaries and introduce you to the world of HTML parsing from a C perspective, eventually leading you to write your own CSS. 🐛➡️💻

What You'll Learn in this Course:

• Preparing for the HTML Parser: We'll lay the groundwork needed for a robust and functional parser by setting up our development environment and understanding the project scope.
• Functional Programming Influence: Drawing inspiration from functional programming, we'll apply its principles to write cleaner and more efficient code.
• Drawing from Compiler Logic: Building on insights from our previous compiler episode, we'll utilize similar strategies to enhance our understanding of the language's structure and functionality.

Course Breakdown:

• Lexer Creation: Learn how to convert textual source code into an internal representation (tokens) that can be processed by your program.
• Defining Language Grammar: Understand and apply Backus-Naur Form (BNF) to describe the set of rules that define a language's syntax.
• Writing a Recursive Functional Parser: Transform tokens into a parse tree or abstract syntax tree by parsing them according to the defined grammar, using recursion and functional programming techniques.
• Practical Application: Once you have the basics down, apply your knowledge to perform tasks like rendering web pages (HTML), emitting assembly code, or even creating a new programming language.
