What's with the title?

It's a Typescript-to-circuit converter/transpiler/compiler.

Why not just "Build a circuit in Typescript"?

I think “Turing Complete” here refers to a game about making circuits:

Thank you. That was lost on me, too.

Great game, too, with some truly surprising features (like Verilog export)

For those who may have taken a leak at the game in the past: The recent update from this summer was a ground up engine rewrite with all sorts of features like this.

I think the "Turing Complete" part is about the "It has a campaign its not just a ts-to-circuit compiler"

Yea exactly. I made the campaign using the open source libs to try to get people using it creatively/in a somewhat familiar setting. Appreciate you having taken a look

Good feedback. I tried a similar title on a previous post and got no traction so I tried to contextualise by relating it to Turing Complete. Didn't hit
