For the amount of time and effort that went into that article, the author could surely have fixed at least one of the things they complain about! And they don't seem to understand the C #include mechanism at all, so should we even pay attention to their technical criticisms in the first place?!

I don't know if you read the whole article. The author did make a Mini vMac fork to clean up the build system and code, she linked it at the end. https://github.com/InvisibleUp/uvmac .

Ha. I was starting to find the article a bit tiring and the moment my eyes landed on the Conclusion heading I stopped right there. You shouldn't trust my criticisms either.

Wait, but that last sentence makes you a reliable narrator now. I am lost.

Oh, thank goodness. Hacking Mini vMac was a chore and I didn't have the energy to do something like this.

My 2c: having played around with the codebase recently (to add C++ to the codebase), I did find Cursor helpful in figuring out how to work with the bespoke build system.
