Hi there, it’s time for the monthly report! This report covers hrev53461-hrev53529. Let’s see what happened this month in Haiku. Non-x86 support Some initial work for ARM64 was completed by kallisti5. This includes setting up the Haikuports package declarations, writing the early boot files, and in general getting the buildsystem going. Jaroslaw Pelczar also contributed several further patches (some of these still undergoing review), providing the initial interrupt handling support, and various stubs to let things compile

Node.js now available in Haiku

Blog post by return0e on Thu, 2019-09-19 11:45
, , ,

TLDR: pkgman install nodejs As some have already known for a long time, many platforms have had support for writing software in JavaScript or TypeScript with the help of the Node.js runtime and over the years, much of the software written by developers these days have gradually been written in either of those languages. However, Haiku has lacked a Node.js port for quite sometime and it wasn’t possible to run or develop JavaScript based software or libraries that depended on the Node.

Haiku Activity Report: Performance Edition

Blog post by waddlesplash on Sun, 2019-08-04 23:00

Welcome to the monthly report for July 2019! Most of the more interesting changes this month have been from myself in the way of performance optimizations, so I’m writing the progress report this month so I can talk about those in some detail. This report covers hrev53238-hrev53337 (158 commits.) Optimizations! Now that Haiku has entered the beta phase, and after the work over the past year or so spent fixing the majority of known kernel crashes and other general instabilities, it is high time we start paying more attention to the whole system’s performance.

new PVS studio scan

Blog post by pulkomandy on Sat, 2019-07-27 10:18

PVS studio has just published a series of 3 articles looking over errors and bugs they identified in our sourcecode. PVS is a code static analysis tool that identifies code likely to be incorrect. They had already run a similar scan back in 2015. At the time, their tools ran on Windows only which had made this quite a challenge for them. They are now more Linux friendly, so it was much easier for them to perform the scan.
