#272FURS does for Forth, what headers do for C, namely provide all the embedded configuration information inside a Cortex-M MCU, for the up to 100 inbuilt peripherals.
Without this data, neither C nor Forth (or any other language) have any clue about how to use the peripherals.
FURS does this by intercepting the Forth user source as it's uploaded to the on-chip compiler and transforming it into language the MCU inherently understands.
The Forth user source code is not altered in any way.
I've used the Fossil DCVS for the entire FURS project so that all the flowcharts, pictures, code, user doc, trouble-ticket, wiki ... everything is contained in the ONE FILE, under 5MB.
This one file gives you a web server so all you need is a browser to easily view all the above from the main menu.

This helped me bridge the gap between installing packages declaratively via NixOS / home-manager and defining them for each project being worked in via flake.nix / direnv / nix-direnv; which was needed since most projects don't use Nix.

As part of it I am building a code generator to generate shared type definitions in C++ and TypeScript (plus serialization, comparison and cloning).

#277I’ve been struggling to find substantive traction, so I’m trying to niche down to make the tool really helpful for people who want to quit their jobs.
I built a rudimentary planning and forecasting engine, and am trying to run paid ads to see if the signals resonate with people. I don’t love ads, but maybe trying to understand them will further inform my opinion on them.
One thing I would love to come up with is a way to make the app fully local first, while continuing the ability to sync accounts via plaid. It would be great to not be able to see people’s data at all. Im trying to figure out if there is a good user experience I could provide while minimizing the amount of data I actually have access too. Maybe this feature won’t matter to my primary customers though, I’m not really sure.
I still have a ton of fun working on it, and if it never really makes any money I consider it a great success for my personal learning.

#279I am using hugo to build suckless static pages. LLM helped me so that I don't need to read all their docs. I haven't finished it yet nor posted a single blog. But there will be one soon.
