Wow, you did it yourself?! This is just wow, as a C/C++ developer I know how to create an OS, but at most I could come up with an idea, but writing all this myself, I have no words.

I work on various github projects: 1) Header-only ASCII font renderer for embedded/SDL/terminal https://github.com/Ferki-git-creator/ascii-render 2) TurboStitchGIF: A fast, header-only C GIF decoder without d

So it's very strange, and sometimes it reminds Gemini that he also doesn't know his version.

Dude, this is a really cool thing. I dreamed of creating this myself once. Now that you've done it, I can be happy because I always wanted to share the code and not hear the intrusive words "Don't self-promote."

I liked it, but I think they should add the ability to download music to .waw/.mp3 and add a local version to github (your wish).

I did it for nostalgia, I wanted to do it the way they used to do it, for example, such README files are in SDL and Linux.

Totally fair — this pattern can be confusing at first glance. The main motivation is ease of integration: no need to manage extra .c files, no build system tweaks, just drop in one file and go. It’s especially useful for embedded systems, s

Great question! It works the same way as stb-style libs: you only #define GIF_IMPLEMENTATION in one .c file (one translation unit). In all other files, you just #include "gif.h" without the define. The header uses #ifdef GIF_IMPLE

Exactly! That flexibility was one of my goals. Making integration smooth for both small embedded projects and larger codebases with unity builds — glad to hear it resonates.

Thanks! Yes, stb-style header-only libs were definitely an inspiration. I know some devs find the approach confusing, especially with linker errors if *_IMPLEMENTATION isn't handled correctly. I tried to keep it simple and clearly docu

Yes, I used ChatGPT to help refine the README and occasionally get suggestions for cleaner or more efficient code patterns. But the core logic, turbo decoding modes, and embedded optimization — that’s all written, tested, and understood by

I don’t see AI as a threat to programmers now or in the future — it’s just a tool. Think of programming like cutting down trees: we used to swing axes, and now we’ve got chainsaws. But even the best chainsaw won’t cut a tree on its own — it

Thanks for the answer, I'm glad you like it. :) Your observation is appropriate, I didn't notice the error in my project's output, apparently I accidentally put "Photo", wrote "Phono". I know you don'

Fair point! XID targets niche scenarios where its properties shine: 1. Resource-constrained environments (IoT/embedded) where UUIDs are too heavy 2. Offline systems needing collision resistance without coordination 3. Debuggabili

As for advice, of course I don't know for sure if it's better this way, but it seems to me that you have a lot of files that are ~2kb each, have you thought about merging some of them for easier readability of the project?
