🛠️ Compiler Architecture

The Bangla compiler follows these stages:
1. Lexical Analysis: Tokenize Bengali source code
2. Parsing: Create Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)
3. Transformation: Convert Bangla AST to JavaScript AST
4. Code Generation: Generate JavaScript code

$3

- Handles Bengali Unicode characters
- Recognizes Bengali-specific keywords
- Converts Bengali numerals to standard numbers

$3

- Creates an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)
- Validates syntax according to Bangla language rules
- Prepares for transformation

$3

- Converts Bangla-specific AST to JavaScript-compatible AST
- Handles language-specific constructs
- Prepares for code generation

$3

- Transforms AST into executable JavaScript
- Maintains original code structure
- Generates source maps for debugging
