The programmer who made the OS
Actually compilers are more complex than operative systems, and incredibly they are built using compilers.
Compilers are built using compilers?
Yup, C is written in C. You bootstrap using a compiler written in another language until your language is complete enough to write its own compiler.
Alright, that's kinda crazy lol.
gcc and clang are open source, you can read their source code whenever you want!
I belive you. I made a basic OS in around a month and now i'm starting a C compiler, I think I underestimated it a bit
