vladcodes

A developer going by vladcodes has released Rhun, an open-source code editor written entirely in assembly language, sharing it with the Hacker News community. The project, available at rhun.app, is drawing attention for the unusual technical decision to build an editor at such a low level, a task most projects handle with higher-level languages. Commenters are likely debating the practicality, performance benefits, and maintainability of assembly-based tooling.
