  Meanwhile, a Go to Brainfuck compiler remains uncharted territory.

  (If you are genuinely curious, there is already a BASIC-to-Brainfuck compiler [1] and a C-to-Brainfuck compiler [2].)

  Related to this I used go to compile brainfuck to x86 assembly:

  That was a fun project I challenged myself to complete in a weekend.

  I might be wrong, but is this not a transpiler instead of a compiler?

  I can never take Brainfuck seriously because it has such a juvenile name.
