- The page reports a roughly 4,000-line C# compiler and an 8 KB Hello World executable, with no external compiler tools.
Field notes
The homepage lays out a compiler pipeline from lexical analysis through type checking to machine code, and reports that the compiler is written in about 4,000 lines of C#. It gives an 8 KB Hello World executable as a size reference and says no other tools are needed. The installer is listed for 64-bit Windows 10 and 11; the page also notes that unsigned builds may trigger Windows protection warnings.
