Plan 9 Week has officially come to and end!
And... what a weird adventure it was! I still have two articles I'd like to finish up about Plan 9 -- it's just such a a fascinating system -- but I am finding the process of writing a "review" of Plan 9 incredibly challenging. So many mixed feelings. Strong ones.
Below is a bunch of posts (from myself and the community) about our adventures this week. Installing Plan 9 (and the 9front fork) on bare hardware, getting software to work, being weirded out by the differences in coding for Plan 9 (vs almost any other system). Even have Doom running in here. Because... of course.
