I really liked the idea of an intermediate bytecode language when I first learned that Java transpiles to one, so I tried to learn about it and got pretty far (using a hexeditor to mess around was pretty painful, though). I stopped because there isn't a lot of document for it like there is for Java, the best resources are I believe docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se7/html/jvms-4.html and docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se7/html/jvms-6.html, but I want to know if there are any others partly because these are kind of verbose and partly because it's just better to have more than two.
