Retrocomputing is not just for older individuals, as demonstrated by a young developer recreating Conway's game of life on a Macintosh Plus from the 1980s.
Programming on old machines like the 1980s Macintosh Plus offers a unique intellectual challenge, requiring a deep understanding of the system without the ability to easily find code snippets online.
The young developer, ComputerSmith, chose to work on C programming for the Macintosh Plus to enhance his skills, showcasing a dedication to mastering the language.
The project was presented at VCS Southwest, offering attendees a glimpse into programming on a vintage Macintosh Plus and the opportunity to obtain the code on a diskette.
