How can we download only the source code?

The source code comes in a bundle that includes a compiler, an emulator, and some extra tools. While I don't see an advantage on downloading the source code alone, I won't deny it.

Just note that there are three different "branches":

- stable: This is the one being distributed in the website

- neofetch: This one exists because I couldn't get the ASCII art to fit within 512 bytes along with the rest of features

- multistage (untested): Here I'm trying to work with jumps in memory to handle different commands and features (and include them all in one release). I read online that I can compile them separately and then merge the binaries to get jumps to work. But I haven't finished it, and it probably won't compile as it is right now.

That said, here is the source code for all of them: https://quickshare.samsungcloud.com/wB9kfq1umxW2

edit: fixed missing newlines

Congratulations on your project!

Out of curiosity why don’t you put the source code on github?

I want to clean up the environment I used before uploading it to GitHub; that has taken me like 4 days and still going. Yes, I've spent more time configuring the environment and documenting than actually programming. And the worst part? It's not even finished!
