Welcome to SizeCoding.org
SizeCoding.org is a wiki dedicated to the art of creating very tiny programs for the 80x86 family of CPUs. By "very tiny programs", we mean programs that are typically 256 bytes in size, usually created by members of the demoscene. Despite their tiny size, these programs are able to produce amazing graphical displays, playable games, and sometimes music. There are even some surprisingly effective programs in under 16 bytes, such as a maze generator in 10 bytes, and an "Enter the Matrix" screensaver in only 8 bytes.
