In more detail, Mograsim allows: + +* Programming and running simple assembler on the machine *(in development)* +* Defining an ISA (Instruction Set) to use in the assembler *(in development)* +* Microprogram the CPU to implement the specified ISA +* View the Circuit Logic operating and executing the microprogram in detail + +Mograsim focuses especially on the AMD Am2900 Family microprocessors in a specific +16-bit arrangement used by the Technical University of Munich as an example. + +# Getting Started + +See [Getting Started](docs/getting_started.md) + +# Building Mograsim + +See [Building Mograsim](docs/building_mograsim.md) \ No newline at end of file
