  1. https://github.com/JuliaComputingOSS/llvm-cbe edit: you also have mrustc as a Rust to C compiler outright.

  2. …is whether it's worth your time to learn Julia to do so. You could also do it at the LLVM level: https://github.com/JuliaComputingOSS/llvm-cbe One cool use case is in https://github.com/JuliaLinearAlgebra/Octavian.jl which relies on…

  3. …for it; “transpiler” feels fairly arbitrary to me. With a bit of effort and the right add-on ( https://github.com/JuliaComputing/llvm-cbe ) you can make any LLVM-based compiler produce C code!

  4. …to bring there. If you want that in LLVM you can try your luck with the "resurrected" C backend: https://github.com/JuliaComputingOSS/llvm-cbe I don't understand why I see so many requests for LLVM-based languages to change around their…

  5. …I suspect (but don't know) that it might work for Terra as well. There's also the LLVM C backend ( https://github.com/JuliaComputingOSS/llvm-cbe ) but I've no idea how efficient such an approach is when applied to real world embedded tasks.

  6. …a viable way to support exotic old architectures which only have a C compiler. LLVM-cbe is a thing: https://github.com/JuliaComputing/llvm-cbe

  8. We did have this once upon a time, going from Julia->LLVM->C using the llvm-cbe project ( https://github.com/JuliaComputing/llvm-cbe ). It is not supported any more, since there are easier ways to achieve what you are asking for. If your…

  9. There is a semi-maintained (perhaps more accurately “occasionally resurrected”) C backend for LLVM: https://github.com/JuliaComputing/llvm-cbe
