      <title>🚀 I’m building SAYANOX-FORGE — an open-source developer security platform</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hey everyone! 👋&lt;br&gt;
I’ve been working on SAYANOX-FORGE, a local-first developer security and code intelligence platform designed to help developers find potential security and code-quality issues before shipping.&lt;br&gt;
🔐 What it currently includes&lt;br&gt;
30+ security analysis rules&lt;br&gt;
Static code analysis&lt;br&gt;
Project &amp;amp; configuration validation&lt;br&gt;
Dependency/license scanning&lt;br&gt;
Secrets &amp;amp; credential detection&lt;br&gt;
Project health/statistics&lt;br&gt;
SARIF / JSON / Markdown / HTML reports&lt;br&gt;
.forgeignore support&lt;br&gt;
Local scan history&lt;br&gt;
Project generator&lt;br&gt;
Plugin SDK foundation&lt;br&gt;
Browser-based project workspace&lt;br&gt;
Privacy-first architecture&lt;br&gt;
No paid AI API required&lt;br&gt;
Tech stack: TypeScript + React + Vite&lt;br&gt;
The project is still evolving, and I’d really appreciate feedback from developers, security researchers and open-source contributors.&lt;br&gt;
👉 What security rules, developer tools, or features would you like to see added next?&lt;br&gt;
If you’re interested, feel free to check it out, test it, open an issue, or contribute:&lt;br&gt;

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to review or give feedback. 🙌&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>I Built a Self-Hosting Language, a DB Engine and a Microkernel — Entirely on My Phone</title>
      <dc:creator>Sayan the researcher</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sun, 30 Aug 2026 10:17:41 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/sayan9168/i-built-a-self-hosting-language-a-db-engine-and-a-microkernel-entirely-on-my-phone-2edc</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/sayan9168/i-built-a-self-hosting-language-a-db-engine-and-a-microkernel-entirely-on-my-phone-2edc</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;No laptop. No IDE. Just Termux and a text editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Over the past year I shipped five systems from my Android phone:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;SahajCore — a self-hosting programming language&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;SahajQL — a natural-language query language&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;SahajDB / SahajGame / SahajOS — a DB engine, game engine, microkernel&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's how the core works.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  SahajCore: source → machine
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The pipeline is classic:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;source → tokenizer → recursive-descent parser → AST&lt;br&gt;
       → tree-walk interpreter&lt;br&gt;
       → bytecode compiler → stack VM&lt;br&gt;
       → C / WAT transpilers&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bytecode compiler emits a flat instruction list. This is real output&lt;br&gt;
from &lt;code&gt;sahajcore --compile&lt;/code&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight plaintext"&gt;&lt;code&gt;0004 LOAD a
0005 LOAD b
0006 CONST 2
0007 BIN *
0008 BIN +
0009 STORE c
0014 BIN &amp;gt;
0015 JZ 19
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Self-hosting (the fun part)
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The interpreter is written in SahajCore itself. The bootstrap chain:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Python-hosted interpreter&lt;br&gt;
  → runs selfhost.sahaj (interpreter written in SahajCore)&lt;br&gt;
    → runs target.sahaj (user program)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The hardest bug: recursive Fibonacci blew the Python stack because every&lt;br&gt;
target-level call expanded into hundreds of host frames. Fix: rewrote the&lt;br&gt;
demo iteratively and raised the recursion limit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Backends
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;C backend: emits C, compile with clang → native binary.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;WASM backend: emits WAT (i32 locals/params, stack ops), assemble with wat2wasm.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  SahajDB
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A tiny relational engine with:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Write-Ahead Log (WAL) for durability&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Hash index on primary key&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;commit() flushes to disk and clears the WAL&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Lessons
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Constraints focus you. A phone forces small, fast iterations.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Write the interpreter in the language itself as early as possible.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test with real programs, not toy examples.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Try it
&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight plaintext"&gt;&lt;code&gt;pip install sahajcore
pip install sahajql
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Happy to go deep on any part — ask me anything.&lt;/p&gt;
