Mastermind

Mastermind is a programming language designed to compile to the esoteric language Brainfuck.

Brainfuck is essentially a modern interpretation of the classical Turing machine. It consists of an array (or tape) of 8-bit values, with simple increment/decrement, move left/right, and control flow operations. The full language only uses 8 control characters: +-><.,[].

Imagine an alternate reality where C was designed for computer architectures that run Brainfuck natively, that is what Mastermind is intended to be.

VS Code extension (1.1.0)

The vscode-extension/ folder contains the Mastermind VS Code extension. It runs compile and run by invoking the mmi CLI.

The CLI is built from the mmi-cli Cargo crate in compiler/:

cd compiler
cargo install --path .

See vscode-extension/README.md for extension features, input workflow, and development setup.
