Retro6502 for 8-bit dev: smashing a mosquito with a pile driver
Developing for the 6502 8-bit microprocessor is hard with your code confined to the platform. Retro6502 has a fast, pure Julia emulator that lets your code call Julia where development is orders of magnitude faster – you can code in assembly after your Julia version works and passes your tests. You get
- macros / code gen in Julia
- Assembly in the Julia REPL
- Pure Julia 6502 emulation
- Live coding
- Automated testing
- Julia prototyping you can test against your 6502 code
- Read-only memory
