The feat was devised by Software Engineer Dmitri Mitropoulos, founder of Michigan Typescript and co-founder of Squiggleconf. He released a video showcasing the results of a year-long effort to get Doom running inside of Typescript's Types system.

Typescript is a language built on top of Javascript, that add static typing to catch many errant mistakes before your executes, think of it as guardrails which check that functions and other variables are being used correctly. While this is commonly used in all kinds of development, it's unheard of to run a game within Typescript's Type system.
The port itself runs inside three and a half trillion lines of types, totalling a gargantuan size of 177 TB. This is run through Typescript's Type tracker, which takes 12 days to compile the first frame of Doom (0.0000009645 fps). This meant that 20 million type instantiations were running every second in order to get the output.
Mitropoulos explained in the Michigan TypeScript Discord server that this could be improved to take "1 to 12 hours", as long as someone works on it, with the developer noting that he has notes for where potential performance optimizations could be made.

This was done by running the project within a custom WASM runtime, which is then processed through Typescript within an editor to display a frame.

![Dmitri Mitropoulos further explained that each value within the Typescript Types system equates to a line of pixels [totalling 128,000 lines of pixels in total], resulting in a "resolution" of 320x200, displayed in ASCII.
To do this, the developer needed to remove limitations within the Typescript compiler itself, highlighting just how large the project got, with the Type tracker runtime consuming over 90 GB of RAM while it was running.
This huge overhead meant that common tools within Typescript could not be used, which meant that the herculean task of encoding every element of Doom in types. This required learning to develop elements like an L1 CPU cache, within Typescript Types itself. Due to Typescript requiring iteration on a single string from the left-hand side, binary algorithms had to be input in reverse.
"Oh, and AI can't help" Dmitri Mitropoulos added, describing that the work was so low level that AI couldn't possibly assist with any of the tasks. Too bad, Grok 3.
Mitropoulos said that he undertook the challenge after completing "every other" Types challenge, and wanted to understand why Doom wouldn't be able to run within Types. However, he managed to find "ridiculous" workarounds to make it all work, despite his own disbelief in the project.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/166/742/069/675/680/original/110e43577d22fe1d.jpeg "Dmitri Mitropoulos further explained that each value within the Typescript Types system equates to a line of pixels [totalling 128,000 lines of pixels in total], resulting in a \"resolution\" of 320x200, displayed in ASCII.

A developer could hack into the Apple Lightning to HDMI dongle and run Doom directly on the accessory. The Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter features a custom Samsung SoC with a 400MHz ARM Cortex-A5 core and 256 MiB of DRAM.

The adapter runs a simplified version of iOS, but since it doesn’t have persistent storage, the developer used their MacBook to load firmware with a file system. They also use the laptop's connection for controls, but aside from that, everything runs directly on the dongle.
The developer said he plans to release the software behind this Doom project as a package in the future, allowing anyone with a jailbroken iOS device to run it and try it for themselves. In the meantime, he plans to improve it further, like introducing sound output and finding a way to attach a controller to the dongle so you can play Doom without needing a Mac.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/013/843/560/414/543/original/33d0585b6b0cd744.png "[ImageSource: nyan_satan]

I came to realise most of the games he played and has played since were very Doom like.
I love him, but these games are not really my bag. But he sent me this tonight, which kind of is.
How many of those Doom playing 90’s teenagers turned into middle aged folk whose idea of fun is a private view of a gallery with limitless red wine and cheese?
