Generating code during comptime is explicitly forbidden by the author. You can still generate code during build.zig of course.

Zig lets you inspect type info (including, eg, function signatures), but it doesn't give you raw access to the AST. There's no way to access the ast of the body of the function. As highlighted by view 0 in my article, I consider this a good thing. Zig code can be read without consideration for which pieces are comptime or not, something that heavy AST manipulation loses.

Though, if you really wanted to do stupid things, you could use @embedFile to load a Zig source file, then use the Zig compiler's tokenizer/ast parser (which are in the standard library) to parse that file into an AST. Don't do that, but you could.

This reminds me of comptime brainfuck interpreter https://github.com/edqx/ccb
