I'm gonna try a thing:
I've been letting a few projects languish for a while now. One of them is my 6502 emulator, which I ported from c++ to #CSharp a few years ago.
I kind of want to port it again, or maybe just reimplement it.
The top of my list is a real grab bag of languages:
#Rust
#Zig
#Swift
#GoLang
I may just get some of the basic addressing logic done in each of them and see what sticks.
They're in rough order of "what I want to play with", though of all of them I have the most familiarity with rust. With Zig I have practically zero experience, and the other two sit somewhere in between.
The point here is not to start language wars, and I'll straight up mute anyone who tries, but I'd love to hear folks' thoughts.
If you want to make the case for another language, feel free to drop them in the replies! Really only looking for statically-compiled languages, and I'm not writing it in Java. ;)
Edit: Oh, and, boosts appreciated!
