---------
Per GNU MIX development kit (mdk)[0] intro "... a set of utilities for developing programs using Donald Knuth’s MIX mythical computer and MIXAL, its assembly language." The tutorial goes over architecture, instruction set, MIXAL related stuff and basic "getting started".
Something a bit above "bare metal programming"; Escape is an OS that runs on GIMMIX as a simulator for MMIX.[7]
DXL is a similar architechture.[1]
MMIX is more 'current'[2] aka easier to find tutorial information on RISC architectures.
Few 'intro to computer architecture'[3] -- depends on how want to approach. aka, high level overview, how things work 'bitwise" vs. abstract level one step above the bits, "stack"/instructional queue
