1.4 KiB
ToDo
Some things that would be nice . . (if you did them :-) )
- Better elf support. I think it should be relatively easy to produce an executable binary (so linking could be skipped). Off course the possibility to link in another library would be nice
- utf8 support (string improvements generally)
- SOF parser
Or the list of things i am not even planning of tackling at the moment
Platforms
x86 is up for grabs. I have intentionally started on arm (the most sold cpu) because i do this for fun. And my pi is fun.
Trying to get mainstream acknowledgement/acceptence is not fun, it's hard work and should be undertaken by someone with funding.
I hope to get the multi-machine architecture done at some point as i also want to port to Arduino
Compliance
Is admittedly a little more fun, but also not really my goal in the near future.
If i am really honest about this, i think ruby is a little quirky around the edges and i think a lot of that can/should be done as a compatibility layer. Keeping the core clean (and shiny).
Stdlib
Stdlib is not clean. More like a layer that accumulated over the years.
Very nice solutions exist for most of the important things. Like celluloid for concurrency. Celluloid-io for good performance io with or without zero-mq. Fiddle looks nice admittedly.
Anyway, as i want to use gpio mostly the whole c wrapping is not too high on the list.
