-<title>Minimal clang home page</title>
-
-<p>
-This is a bare bones web page for the "clang" C front-end. This project will
-provide a new C/C++/ObjC front-end for <a href="http://llvm.org">LLVM</a>.
-</p>
-
-<p>The motivation for this project is described well in Steve Naroff's talk
-at the <a href="http://llvm.org/devmtg/2007-05/">2007 LLVM Developer Meeting</a>.
-A <a href="http://llvm.org/devmtg/2007-05/09-Naroff-CFE.mov">video</a> and
-<a href="http://llvm.org/devmtg/2007-05/09-Naroff-CFE.pdf">slides</a> are
-available.</p>
-
-<p>Some more motivation, details, and performance numbers are in the second
-half of Chris' <a
-href="http://llvm.org/pubs/2007-07-25-LLVM-2.0-and-Beyond.html"> LLVM 2.0
-and Beyond!</a> talk, which describes how the clang pre-processor can be used
-to make distcc 3-4x more scalable.</p>
-
-<p>To get and build the source, please follow <a
-href="http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2007-July/009817.html">these
-directions</a>.</p>

-please join the <a href="http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits">

-
-<p>A rough <a href="docs/InternalsManual.html">Internals Manual</a> is
-available.</p>
-
-<p>Please note that we don't consider this to be ready for people to take and
-compile random pieces of code with yet. However, if you'd like to do so
-<em>and</em> help fix problems exposed by doing so, we would appreciate the help.</p>

+ <h1>Clang: a C language front-end for LLVM</h1>
+ <h2>About</h2>
+ <p>The goal of the Clang project is to create a new <a href="http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk/LICENSE.TXT">BSD Licensed</a> C, C++, & ObjC front-end for the <a href="http://www.llvm.org/">LLVM</a> compiler.
+ <br><br>
+ <p>In the context of this website, the term Clang actually refers to two things:
+ <p>1) A "code name" for the LLVM compiler front-end.
+ <p>2) A specific library in the LLVM front-end -- in particular the "driver" that makes all the other libraries work together.
+ <br><br>
+ <p>The developers of Clang include contributers from Apple and numerous other volunteers.
+ <h2>Why?</h2>
+ <p>The development of a new front-end was started out of a need -- a need for a compiler that allows better diagnostics, better integration with IDEs, a license that is compatible with commercial products, and a compiler that is easier to develop and maintain. All of these were motiviations for starting work on a new C/C++/ObjC front-end that could meet these needs.
+ <p>An excellent introduction to Clang can be found in the following video lectures:
+ <ul>
+ <li><a href="clang_video-05-25-2007.html">Clang Introduction</a>
+ <li><a href="clang_video-07-25-2007.html">Features and Performance of Clang</a>
+ </ul>
+ <h2>Features/Goals</h2>
+ Some of the goals for the project include the following:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Unified parser for C-based languages
+ <li>Language conformance with C99, ObjC, C++
+ <li>Real-world, production quality compiler
+ <li>GCC compatibility
+ <li>Library based architecture with finely crafted C++ APIs
+ <li>High performance
+ <li>Better integration with IDEs
+ <li>Expressive diagnostics
+ <li>BSD License
+ </ul>
+ Of course this is only a rough outline of the goals and features of Clang. To get a true sense of what the new LLVM front-end is all about, as well as why you might want to considering using it, see the <a href="features.html">Features</a> section.
