This looks awesome, but I'm slightly confused with the mission of this project. Is it meant to provide a simplified operating system to encourage tinkering, or a minimal "old-school" environment in which to learn "higher-level" programming on?
- daniel_reetz 12y agoIt's about the short stack. From the page: Okay, what is the ultimate goal here? There are tons of approaches to learning to program, and reasons for doing so. You might want to build an empire, or just have a few extra skills in your back pocket. Levinux supports your pursuit either goal and everything in-between. It does this by focusing on one particular “short stack” approach: learning the least-possible software possible of the most timeless nature to enable you to do interesting things. It can be your primary programming environment, or just sort of a safety-net as you pursue other more sexy platforms like mobile app development.
