effigy | Small language that compiles to Python37 bytecode | Interpreter library

effigy is a JavaScript library typically used in Utilities, Interpreter applications. effigy has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

This is an experiment on building a small language compiler on top of a home brewed parsing expression grammar implementation. The language implemented in this project, effigy, currently compiles down to a subset of the Python 3.7 bytecode format. More specifically, the Effigy compiler produces .pyc files. Effigy's runtime is the Python 3.7 Virtual Machine. The difference is just how the bytecode gets generated. Most idioms like declaring literals, calling functions, assigning variables etc have the exact same semantics as in regular Python code. Effigy differs from Python on the use of functions for control flow a little more often and the absence of classes (might be added later).
