based off of the von neumann model, White Blaze is a computer architecture that will run AmberOS, the one and only operating system being designed and emulated by Jesse Wood.
History and conception:
The name being dubbed by Ken Wood, the idea for AmberOS started with an interest in creating an operating system from scratch as a learning activity back in 2010.
An AVR chip was hooked to a DIY digital to analog converter to feed into a composite video feed on a DVD player. Development got to the point of outputting NTSC signal and displaying a low resolution black and white grid. Then technical difficulties arrived and the project was mostly forgotten about until around 2016 when Jesse began to re-think the project. Fast forward to February of 2017, The project started to be actively worked on and this blog was initiated to document progress.
Then in September of the same year, thanks again to Ken, The architecture was named White Blaze and the operating system itself was continued as AmberOS
