I was unable to understand the llvm source well enough to understand your point. Are they working on a WebAssembly port that will get their intermediate code to a point where Fortran works?


I meant that we are actively developing a new implementation of the Fortran language itself here. We are still adding features and fixing bugs. Fortran code that compiles and runs today with llvm-project/main HEAD may well not compile or not run with older release branches.


The article uses LLVM Flang from LLVM 18.1.1. pklausler's point is that it is counterproductive and LLVM HEAD should be used instead.


I’m trying to understand why though
