Compile Java bytecode to native assembly for microcontrollers and retro platforms like Commodore 64, Sega Genesis, and Atari 2600.
What is Java Grinder?
Java Grinder is a compiler that converts Java bytecode into native assembly code for microcontrollers and retro computing platforms. It solves the problem of running Java applications on hardware with limited resources, such as vintage game consoles and embedded systems, by generating optimized CPU-specific instructions.
Embedded systems developers, retro computing enthusiasts, and hobbyists working with microcontrollers or legacy hardware who want to use Java for low-level programming.
Developers choose Java Grinder for its unique ability to target a wide range of vintage and embedded platforms with Java, offering a modern programming language approach to systems typically programmed in assembly or C.
Overview
