The 'crustc' project demonstrates a complete translation of the Rust compiler (rustc) into C, resulting in a functional compiler built with GCC. This serves as a proof-of-concept for the author's broader 'cilly' toolchain, which aims to compile Rust code to C for various targets.
Background
Translating complex systems like compilers into lower-level languages is often used to explore language interoperability or reduce dependencies on specific runtimes.
