Everyone knows the tool as godbolt.
- 2bluesc 6y agoInteresting tool I've never used, for the uninitiated: https://godbolt.org/ https://godbolt.org/
- dr_zoidberg 6y agoInteresting, but broken in Firefox. Could not get it to run and then I thought "maybe in Chrome..." and then got it to work.
- Smar 6y agoWhat did you do to get it to work?
- dr_zoidberg 6y agoOpening in Chrome.
- ladberg 6y agoYep, it honestly never occurred to me that the name of the tool wasn't godbolt. I just went to the site and noticed "Compiler Explorer" for the first time, which seems so generic that I never thought of it as a name.
- gpderetta 6y agoYes, it is somehow also an awesome name for a tool.
- guodong 6y agoThat's my first impression, too, until I'm curious about what 'godbolt' means, and I googled it...
