Future of Coding

linux.mov

The easter holidays I got sick and vibe coded a

*RISC-V Linux BusyBox Single Board Computer*
<https://tomlarkworthy.github.io/lopebooks/notebooks/@tomlarkworthy_linux-sbc.html>

in a single HTML file. Its quite different to Fabrice's jslinux, it is a JS emulator of the Risk V instruction set, rather than a WASM emscripten toolchain approach.

I wanted to understand the linux boot process. Vibed with my new Claude code plugin for notebooks which is incredibly productive albeit still with a fair few rough edges.

you are emulating the whole riscv instruction set? -- super cool!
which plugin for notebooks are you using? is it what you explain in the second tab? where do you explain what a Lopecode notebook is?
```Setup guide
1. Install Bun if needed, then:
bun install -g @lopecode/channel
claude mcp add lopecode bunx @lopecode/channel
2. Start Claude Code:
claude --dangerously-load-development-channels server:lopecode
3. Ask Claude for a pairing token, then paste it above```

Nowhere but it's here <https://github.com/tomlarkworthy/lopecode|https://github.com/tomlarkworthy/lopecode> it's a local-first port of observable notebooks.

Probably not all the instructions, it seg faults when I open 'vi', but I was more interested in the boot process than running too much

I could `ls` and `ps` that is super impressive

yeah its real linux, it is pretty crazy given the size.

boot.mov

Added a visualization of the privilege modes as it boots. Fixed a few bugs and added floating point. Now awk and vi start! JSLinux can boot in like 3 seconds, so this is about 30x slower. I would like it to be faster....
