For those who don't know, DuskOS is a forth operating system with a C compiler(written in forth, nothing less) that compiles down to the forth VM. This is the most metal implementation of the uxn vm yet.
in addition to it being amazing to see uxn implemented in this context, the DuskOS repo has a smol wealth of documentation, rationale, and source code worth the salt of any budding computer-maker-in-the-making.
If you've wondered things like "why?", "why forth?", "why not C?", "why not Unix?", "why not Javascript?", "how?", "where does this so-called complexity in computing come from?" -- this repo is a valuable resource in the acquisition of those and other understandings.
@pry it's kind of architecture dependent, but X11 and SDL2 implementations are little framebuffer routines that work similarly to the Famicom/z80 era computers.
@phf that's a moment in the film where they setup a made-up world from within their spaceship. You'd need to be familiar with either uxn or duskos to see the relationship.
