Outside of structuring this repository and slight changes made, I've added nothing here.\n\nThis is still a work-in-progress as I will eventually get around to replacing the current sprites with new assets for CHRs generated with the help of [NES Screen Tool][2].\n\n## Building the Demos\n\nI use the assembler/linker provided by the [cc65 compiler][3], [Mesen][6] for debugging, and [NES Extract][7] for extracting PRG/CHR.  Before compiling on Debian-based distros (or, on Windows via WSL), ensure you have the below packages installed:\n\n```bash\nsudo apt install cc65 build-essential\n```\n\nEach demo will have to be compiled individually.  Just execute `make` within the directory of the demo's corresponding make file.  Alternatively for debugging, the Linux version of [FCEUX][8] can be used as well.  If on Debian, download the version from their website instead of using the very old version provided by your package manager.\n\n## Editing\n\nNot a requirement, but the code editor I use is [Visual Studio Code][4] with the Cole Campbell's [language support extension][5].  To install Visual Studio Code on Debian-based distros, execute:\n\n```bash\ncurl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | gpg --dearmor \u003e packages.microsoft.gpg\nsudo install -o root -g root -m 644 packages.microsoft.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/\nsudo sh -c 'echo \"deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/packages.microsoft.gpg] https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/vscode stable main\" \u003e /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vscode.list'\nsudo apt update -y \u0026\u0026 sudo apt upgrade -y\nsudo apt install apt-transport-https\nsudo apt update -y\nsudo apt install code\necho -e \"export DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1\" \u003e\u003e ~/.bashrc\nsource ~/.bashrc\n```\n\n[1]: http://tecmobowl.org/forums/topic/55469-nes-programming-info/\n[2]: https://shiru.untergrund.net/software.shtml\n[3]: https://cc65.github.io/index.html\n[4]: https://code.visualstudio.com\n[5]: https://github.com/tlgkccampbell/code-ca65\n[6]: https://mesen.ca/\n[7]: https://github.com/WillSams/Nes-Extract\n[8]: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/zeromus/fceux/artifacts/fceux-2.4.0-amd64.deb?branch=master\u0026job=Ubuntu","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwillsams%2Fjstout-programming","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fwillsams%2Fjstout-programming","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwillsams%2Fjstout-programming/lists"}
