Hello, this is the documentation to code a frontend for GCC. Why write a frontend for GCC when LLVM is designed for coding frontend with good documentation compared to this unofficial documentation? Because it stops coding a compiler from scratch, takes advantage of decades of middle end optimizations/instrumentation and many backends outputs, and the frontend won't be solely dependent on LLVM.
