Bits Runner Builder
Overview
Bits Runner Builder (brb) is a compiler for Bits Runner Code (brc) language, which has been designed for the Bits Runner Builder operating system. It aims to be a low-level language, which can be a replacement for C while providing a revised syntax and a couple of quality of life improvement. It's a simple system programming language, so no class hierarchies, templates, or other unnecessary fluff.

Comments
Like in C, comments can specified using either \\ which will run until the end of the line or through /* */ block. However, unlike C, the /* bla bla /* bla */ */ comments can be also embeded inside each other.
Literals
Number literals can be specified as decimal, hexadecimal, and binary numbers. Digits can be separated by an '_' but it cannot be the first or the last character (otherwise it will get interpreted as and identifier).
