We wrote this documentation from our experience on reading, developing, or debugging, some forked variants of the Scala compiler.

We would like to thank here those who have written, or given talks, about the inner workings and structure of the Scala Compiler and its variants.

Video presentations

• Chris Birchall, A Deep Dive into Scalac. In Scala World, Penrith (UK), September 2015. This a good description of the compiler itself.

Web logs

• Miles Sabin, Hacking on scalac — 0 to PR in an hour. An excellent introduction to working with the Scala compiler.
