Developer Builds Custom Bash-Like Terminal in C++ Without Standard Libraries

A developer has begun building a custom bash-like terminal from scratch using C++, documenting the process in a series of devlogs. The project deliberately avoids standard C++ libraries to gain hands-on experience with low-level programming and microcontrollers. To manage memory safely, the developer created a custom 'carr' struct to handle char pointer allocation, expansion, and cleanup manually. Custom command names like 'here' and 'go' were chosen instead of traditional Unix equivalents such as 'pwd' and 'cd' to give the terminal its own identity. The project is ongoing, with future devlogs planned to cover additional design decisions and trade-offs encountered during development.
