- Benefit from emerging features in JavaScript, like SIMD
- Compilation speed improvements in LLVM:
- Optimize link stage by writing a single LLVM program to do llvm-link + dce/other linktime opts we do + llvm-dis. That would just avoid serializing/desearializing the whole LLVM module between the steps, which we currently do twice unnecessarily.
- Optimize llvm-link
- Write an LLVM minifier IR pass. Does not need to be perfect, but reducing identifier size as early as possible would reduce overall compilation memory use and likely give a nice speedup
- Finish libcxx test suite passing.
- Proper port of the SDL2 codebase from source (currently we have an SDL1.3 implementation of our own, which has various limitations, and SDL2's source has a license we can accept).
- Finish Regal integration, to potentially replace or be an option alongside our current GL emulation support for legacy GL stuff.
- Improve generated code speed
- IDE integration (Visual Studio, etc.)
