Re:Build a Compiler in Five Projects by pjmlp on Tuesday November 25, 2025 @09:58AM (#46046328)
The ML version is my favourite and I can vouch for the books being quite interesting.

For more modern folks, one can use the ML version as inspiration for doing the book exercises in OCaml, Haskell, F# or Rust.

Writing compilers for a living, and CS research is a niche domain, not something I would consider an extinct art.
