Hello, I'm the author of the Project F blog. I'd be happy to field any questions you have.
- joshu 1y agoThis is an exciting project. Have you thought about the software and OS yet?
- WillFlux 1y agoThanks. I want to keep the software simple while having proper support for the graphics and audio hardware. I already have some prototype software written is RISC-V asm. I’ll probably use lua as the first high-level language, as it has a small code base and runs well on memory-constrained systems. I’m not yet sure what features the OS will offer; it partly depends on interrupts and whether I support virtual memory. But I’m not trying to create another UNIX; there are plenty of those already. However, the system will be modern, e.g. using UTF-8 encoding.
- joshu 1y agoThis makes sense. I’ve thought about a similar project and come to the same conclusions.
