Building five classic CPU cores in Rust for WebAssembly: 8008, 8080, 8088, Z80, and 6502, with shared state formats, cycle timing, and the edge cases that keep emulation honest.
Video Chips and Serial Streams: Rendering C64 Graphics Over a Modem
How I emulated the VIC-II video chip and forwarded its framebuffer as ANSI escape sequences over a serial connection—turning a 40-year-old graphics architecture into something a BBS terminal can display.
Emulation Milestones and TypeScript Migration
Intel 8088 demos, Zig-based 6502 experiments, and migrating the frontend to TypeScript for better type safety.
