Creating a .NET language
I am interested in creating a language that, when compiled, is interoperable with C#.
I understand the basics of lexing/parsing, but I don't know what would be necessary when compiling the syntax tree to IL in order for the language to be debuggable in something like visual studio or VSCode. I am comfortable approaching IL generation, but I don't know if I will need to generate a PDB or embed some other kind of debug labels in the IL or whatever else may be needed to allow debugging. I'm also not sure if there is anything else I should consider with this.
