Building a Simple Server in C for the Commodore Amiga

New videos will be published on PeerTube! https://makertube.net/c/the_industrio... Topaz Rabbit walks through building a simple bsdsocket.library based server for the Commodore Amiga using the C programming language. You'll learn about development environment setup, waiting for socket connections & other signals, and reading and printing client data to the console.
