Worked on the Pirouette-Compiler repository, delivering core enhancements to code generation, automated testing, and build system reliability. Over three months, implemented let-in and join expressions in OCaml to improve expressiveness and correctness, while refining function application handling and top-level SHM initialization. Modernized the build workflow using Dune, introduced pre-commit Git hooks, and updated OCaml tooling for smoother development. Strengthened the testing pipeline with new test cases, automated scripts, and improved documentation, enabling faster iteration and easier onboarding. Addressed critical bugs in conditional code generation, ensuring correctness for Unit-typed branches and reducing debugging time for future contributors.
February 2025: Key progress on the Pirouette-Compiler project with a stronger testing pipeline and a critical correctness fix in the Netgen compiler. Delivered more reliable test automation, improved developer onboarding, and reinforced code-generation correctness for conditional branches. These changes support faster iteration, more robust builds, and easier maintenance.
