Look at this book: https://www.t3x.org/reload/index.html

Some cool open source languages:
* Elena programming language: 
https://github.com/ELENA-LANG/elena-lang
* DotNetPeLib: https://github.com/LADSoft/DotNetPELib
* OrangeC/C++ compiler: https://github.com/LADSoft/OrangeC


I have some cool projects:
* A simple C compiler that generates a EXE/DLL:

* CoffLib ( a lib to generate x86 EXE/DLL in .Net ) :
