Pi-Frame and GIBSON - IBM Mainframe simulator on Raspberry Pi.
Mainframe on a Rasp Pi 4 or 5? I've released the latest version of GIBSON, my mainframe simulator and education environment that is now 70,000 lines of python code built from the ground up - running on a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5. I'm currently writing a book for No Starch Press on 'Hacking Mainframes' and out of necessity, due to the fact most folks who will be reading it would not have the chance to to touch a mainframe, I decided to build it. It has most of the features of the modern mainframe, is open source and can be downloaded from Github https://github.com/kmilne40/GIBSON - why not have a look and provide some feedback. I'm generally never on here - didn't know the group existed as usually on LinkedIn. Glad I found this spot. Some screen shots below! I've even added an email system, ISPF web browser and ISPF RSS feed (just for nostalgia). Of course it runs over EBCDIC. I've also created a Pi Frame project for anyone wanting to put all the bells and whistles together which is on kmilne40/PiFrame
