Amiga programming in 2023

Hi all! I recently posted an article on my blog about my experience getting back into Amiga development and my dev environment in 2023.

The article is here: https://www.markround.com/blog/2023/08 ... tems-programming-in-2023/ and it generated a lot of discussion on Hacker News and other sites. I thought I should really post it here as well as this forum has been a gold-mine of useful information and had provided me with a lot of help in my experiments!

Hope you enjoy it, and please feel free to send any comments or corrections my way - as I said in the article, this is my first time writing C in a very long time, and despite having owned Amigas since the 90s, this is my first time properly experimenting with all of this stuff!

Cheers,

-Mark

Hello Mark,
Let me be the first to say "OUTSTANDING JOB" with your article! I saw the posting on HN and always appreciate seeing the Amiga get some visibility outside our little closed ecosystem. (Be it good or bad...)

GREAT format and flow and HIGHLY informative!! We need more people like you banging away on keyboards.

But first we need more damn affordable keyboards to bang away on. Hey AEON and Hyperion and ACUBE... Are you listening??? We need more computers!!!

Anyway I hope you keep us updated and don't stop what you're doing!

I am watching your blog and your creations every time you upload something. Reading that blog post was an absolute pleasure of all the information you managed to include in it. I am sure it will be useful for anyone who would like to give it a try and start developing on AmigaOS 4 as well.

Also, it is astonishing for me to see people like you, finding my work useful. Thank you for crediting me in your post.
