Mariko Kosaka
summary
Builds a tiny compiler that parses Design by Numbers code and emits SVG, using a simple tokenize → AST → transform → codegen pipeline. Shows a working interactive demo that renders knitting swatches and patterns from small programs, converts paper/pen/line commands to SVG elements, and strings attributes into DOM. Uses familiar tools (lexing, parsing, AST transformation) and claims the result runs in the browser and is practical for experiments.
