From the Transistor to the Web Browser is a project-based computer science course outline built around understanding the computing stack from first principles. The curriculum progresses from basic hardware concepts and Verilog simulation into a working processor. Students are expected to build components such as a UART, ARM7-style CPU, assembler, boot ROM, and linker. Later sections add a C compiler, libc pieces, memory management, Ethernet, and a bootloader. The operating-system portion introduces an MMU, Unix-like system calls, a filesystem, and basic user-space programs. The final software stages add TCP networking, dynamic linking, Telnet access, and a text-based web browser.

Features

  • Verilog hardware and CPU development
  • Assembler and linker implementation
  • C compiler construction
  • Unix-like operating system development
