Building a Mark/Sweep Garbage Collector | C++ | Compiler Hacking

I've been working on a new Garbage Collector for Natalie. In this video, we'll add the mark and sweep phase to the collector so that our unused objects are reclaimed.

About the Project: Natalie is a very early-stage work-in-progress Ruby implementation that compiles Ruby to an executable. It does so by transpiling Ruby to C++ and feeding it to gcc or clang to produce a binary.
