First Devlog Entry

Well, here we are!

Over the last few days I have been furiously developing the Logic Simulation project. I feel like I am close to an alpha release.

Yesterday I implemented an ALU and Bus input multiplexer.

Today:

Added sliders to input nodes to set input values
Made new wire connections propagate their state because that would be expected behavior but had to account for doing this in reverse too
Changed pinout of multiplexer
Implemented saving of graph settings with circuits
Started creating a memory part — pondered how to load in ROM data
Added a Downloads page to this site and added this Devlog section (easy to do with Hugo)

Todos

I want to implement some kind of community here. My initial idea is to implement a comments page (not on every content page). I can add a JavaScript “Comment” link to the comments page with a tag of the source page.

The reasoning here is that very few comments will be submitted on a low traffic site such as this per page, and it’s better to condense them down to one community page I think. But need to track the originating topic to add context to the comment.

I like the idea of it using JavaScript so that even spam should not have a negative impact on the site.

The comments should be visible to people that post, and I can transfer the comments to HTML later after moderation. Early thoughts so far.
