Huh, didn't think I'd ever see anything related to Uxn/Varvara [1] make the front page for myself, though it has been discussed before. Neato.
Haven't yet experimented with it myself, but I like the idea; a runtime that is trivial to implement, especially for low-spec systems.
If you make anything in Uxntal, you can run it on your DS, a GBA, or any other machine that can run a Varvara emulator [2]. So if you want a program to last, that's one way to do it!
You can play with Uxn in the web with https://exaequos.com. See online documentation: https://www.exaequos.com/doc/build/html/dev.html#uxn
I'm not sure how to pronounce that, but at least it's easy to google.
I was looking at this just a few days ago. I was looking at the Forth programming language and somehow my search session led me to this.
It is really impressive to see what has been created with uxn. There are some parallels with TempleOS (original, creative stuff, small community).
