Bob is a Scheme language implementation consisting of a Python interpreter, compiler, and virtual machine (VM), plus an optional C++ VM implementation (BareVM). The system compiles Scheme source code to custom bytecode, which can be executed by either the Python VM or the C++ BareVM. It includes features like bytecode serialization/deserialization and WebAssembly compilation. The architecture is modular with clear separation of concerns: parser, compiler, bytecode handling, VM execution, built-in functions, expression representation, and environment management. Key entry points are in bob/cmd.py (command-line interface) and example scripts demonstrating interpretation, compilation, and execution workflows.
