Original: Show HN: Rhun, an open-source code editor written in assembly
A developer has released Rhun, an open-source code editor written in assembly language, sharing it with the Hacker News community. The project is drawing attention for its unusual technical approach, as most modern editors rely on higher-level languages. Commenters are discussing the performance implications and the practicality of building everyday software at such a low level.
Why now: Writing a full code editor in assembly is a rare, technically impressive feat that sparks curiosity and debate among programmers.
