How I wrote a self-hosting C compiler in 40 days

Since technologies changes before the book is out, how does that hold in compiler domain? Are there any modern compiler book that explains around llvm/gcc as an example compiler?

Not sure if there are any books around LLVM or gcc, but there is a lot of up to date texts.

Grune at al., "Modern Compiler Design",

Appel, "Modern Compiler Implementation in ML",

and many more.

P.S. Because of a slow-ban, adding another one to this answer. This is the best source on SSA:

I'll just add this on: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~fp/courses/15411-f14/schedule.html

The lecture notes are simple and excellent, though at a very high level of abstraction. Though most of the notes are full of references to the original material, which is super nice.
