Mullet’s code is private now
I’ve made Mullet’s code private while I work on a new idea. Everything I’ve written about it stays here, and if you’d like to know more or ask about it, get in touch.
Mullet’s code is private now, while I work on a new idea.
Everything I’ve written about Mullet stays here: how a job is planned, sandboxed and checked by its gates, and the figures behind each choice. The Mullet project page is still the place to start, and the links to the code in older posts now go there.
If you’d like to know more about Mullet, or ask about it, I’d be glad to hear from you. Use the contact form.
