Porting SBCL to the Nintendo Switch
Added 2024-09-13 13:44:39 +0000 UTCHello! Here's a mid-month article specifically about our effort to port SBCL and Trial to the Nintendo Switch. It goes into quite a bit of technical detail, so if you're interested in that, do give it a look! There's also a brand new video recording of some Trial stuff running on actual hardware, so that's exciting!
Oh, and, if you have an account on Hackernews, please look for this post and upvote it there. Getting more eyes on it would be great, thanks a lot!

Oh, yeah, there's ways to ensure that the NDA was signed well enough. For instance, SDL's fork for the switch is a private repo that you can only gain access to through the internal developer forums.
