What if Brainfuck was less like C and more like Scheme?

The interpreter implemetation is pretty bad. It's not very fast, it's not very good, and it's probably not very correct. But maybe there's some vaguely interesting programs you could write with it!

For example, the Y combinator:

  λf. (λx. f (x x)) (λx. f (x x))

  \` \`1 `0 0 \`1 `0 0

I built https://stringflux.io/ to make everyday string transformations a little less painful. It’s similar to CyberChef in the sense that it supports multiple string operations, but with a cleaner, more focused UI and smart suggestions based on your input.

You can also chain transformations — for example: decode base64 string which was base64 encoded from minified json → then json format (pretty-print) it — all in one flow. This is helpfu
