Description

Provides QBE, a small compiler backend that turns an intermediate representation into machine code. It helps language implementers and compiler experiments avoid writing every architecture-specific backend from scratch.

Developers use it from build tools or the terminal. Generated code quality and correctness depend on the frontend and target, so test compiled programs thoroughly before distribution.

How to run
