Heimskr 😎

I'm Kai Tamkun.

Major projects

• Why: an instruction set architecture, including tools like an assembler, linker and VM.
• ll2w: a standalone half-compiler that compiles LLVM intermediate representation into Why bytecode.
• game3: another approach to Untitled Game 2's (see below) general idea, this time with actual graphics!
• wavegen: implementations of the NES and Game Boy APUs in Chisel3, along with text and graphics.
• Algiz: an HTTP 1.1 (+ WebSockets) server with a plugin architecture.
• C+-: a language with a feature set between C and C++ that compiles to Why assembly.
• Spjalla: a terminal-based IRC client.
• Haunted: a C++ terminal UI library used in Spjalla and the Why VM.
• Thurisaz: a kernel for Why written in C++.
• Thorn: a kernel for x86_64 written in C++.

Other projects
