IRILL - Research and Innovation on Free Software

After the success of Euro LLVM in Paris, LLVM Social in Paris is back!

On October 2nd, an LLVM Meetup will take place in Paris. We invite everybody interested in LLVM to join.

  • What is LLVM?

LLVM is a collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies. It is used as the base of many modern compilers such as clang (C/C++/Objective-C), GHC (Haskell), dragonegg (Ada, Fortran, ...),

several commercial OpenCL compilers or RenderScript. Industry, open source community and researchers work on or with LLVM for many reasons.

The most cited ones are the modern code base, the liberal BSD like license and the modularity.

Around LLVM a large ecosystem was built that includes subprojects like dragonegg, vmkit, Polly, lldb, libc++, safecode and many more.

  • What is the LLVM Meetup and Bug Squashing?

It is a casual meetup to get to know people working on LLVM or interested to learn about LLVM. There is no fixed schedule. We just meet to get to know each other and to discuss. No previous knowledge about LLVM is required.

This time we meet at IRILL, where we will have plenty of tables, whiteboards and internet. We plan to use this opportunity to dive into the code and to have a "Debian clang bug squashing meeting". You are invited to bring your laptop to join us (and we are happy to help with any LLVM related hacking).
