ldemailly/tiniest repository overview

⁠Small binaries

From searching online I found the following great read/resources:

• http://ptspts.blogspot.com/2013/12/how-to-make-smaller-c-and-c-binaries.html⁠

• http://www.muppetlabs.com/~breadbox/software/tiny/teensy.html⁠

And adapted and enhanced the example to create the tiniest image that does something (prints "Hello World!" and returns code 42)

For the gory details, see Makefile⁠ and compare the resulting tiny, 126 bytes (coming from tiny.s⁠) vs hello (coming from hello.c⁠) 5520 bytes.

If you have a docker login you can see the build status⁠, otherwise you can pull the image: docker pull ldemaill/tiniest⁠

Note that if you see this on docker hub, the source of this file with working links is on GitHub: https://github.com/ldemailly/experimental/blob/master/smallbinaries/README.md⁠
