BOOLR, a digital logic simulator
I am a Dutch high school student and last year I had to do a large project of my own choice. Together with two other guys I decided to do a project about digital logic. We had an ambitious plan: building an 8-bits computer. At that time I started learning programming and I already knew some HTML and CSS. So we decided to not build a physical computer, but one running in a self-built simulator. I was going to build the simulator, the other guys took care of the computer. I was hard, our school hadn't taught us anything about computers and programming so we had to learn everything ourselves.…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I am a Dutch high school student and last year I had to do a large project of my own choice. Together with two other guys I decided to do a project about digital logic. We had an ambitious plan: building an 8-bits computer. At that time I started learning programming and I already knew some HTML and CSS. So we decided to not build a physical computer, but one running in a self-built simulator. I was going to build the simulator, the other guys took care of the computer. I was hard, our school hadn't taught us anything about computers and programming so we had to learn everything ourselves. Our mentor told us our project was impossible to do, but we didn't listen and we worked hard. After a year we did it, I have built the simulator, called BOOLR, and the other guys have built the 8-bits computer, called Tineke. Our mentor was really impressed, we got a 10/10 grade. I've created BOOLR with JavaScript and Electron, the UI with HTML & CSS. ------------- About & Download website: http://boolr.me, feel free to download it and play around with it, it has a tutorial mode to show how everything works. On Github: https://github.com/ggbrw/boolr, I'm new to programming so don't blame me for the ugly and messy code. Next year I am going to study computer science so I hope to learn more about organizing and optimizing my code, but I am really proud of the result.

This is a little toy project of mine that lets you simulate digital logic graphs. It was inspired by Minecraft's Redstone and the Piet esolang. It's got some serious drawbacks-- you write circuits as PNGs and simulate them with a Python interface. It's slow to run and slow to experiment with. And it is certainly difficult to use for people with any kind of color blindness. But despite that, I hope this can still be a fun toy!

Link here: http://beta.whatispolymath.com Despite all the educational material on the web, I found it pretty hard to learn how to code and design. I had trouble finding high-quality content, figuring out what to learn next, and staying motivated without easy ways to track my progress. So, my co-founder and I built Polymath. Our MVP is pretty simple right now: you can find & submit good content, bookmark & track your progress across different resources, and rate/comment on the material. We’re trying to build a really fun online learning community, and we’ve got some more cool features…
