boot2duino

boot2duino serves no other purpose than to generate a bootable x86 floppy image using the Arduino IDE, which seemingly serves no purpose.

Watch it in action: writing a hello world; a very basic piano.

Examples

Video vid;

void setup() {
  vid.print("Hello world, from Arduino!");
}

void loop() {
  
}
