I believe this was written by the same person who wrote Operating System in 1000 Lines[1] which was high quality and super fun to work through. So this is definitely going on the rainy day list.
No, that would be https://1000hv.seiya.me/en/
Easy mistake to make though, it is the 3rd such guide being posted in a week, definitely seems like the subject has a lot of traction.
But I really dislike these markdown books used by many rust projects. I wish they just had an option to download it as a PDF, so that I could archive them. The printing button really isn't good enough for that. I mean if everything is already neatly renderd to HTML like that, how hard could it realistically be to also create a good looking PDF version...
Good looking typesetting from markdown is surprisingly hard. Played with it a while myself, and it's really not fun.
.... is what I was going to say until I went and hit the print button and 10% of the text was missing and everything was right aligned in the top right corner.
Yikes. You may find it worthwhile to clone the repo, iterate over it with pandoc to make A Big HTML File and then use your browsers print feature or pandocs converter. That's about as good as you'll get without a lot of pain ime.
Just wondering, what value do you get out of this? I used to like having a hardcopy of these kinds of things, especially when I used to have a much smaller monitor.
But these subjects evolve so fast, that having a bunch of .deadtrees lying around just become a nuisance.
If all I want is some form of archive to look back on later, a bunch of .md files seems perfect.
Would have been better to link to the repo [1] directly.
The repository contains the materials of a class, so without attending the class or having a rather strong pre-existing knowledge about hypervisors on x86-x64, the material is going to be very hard to follow.
From my PoV, there are definitely better (as in, explained with a lot more details) tutorials online on how to start your hypervisor from scratch which I'd recommend before trying to understand this one (which has some really nice peculiarities such as Fuzzing UEFI with code coverage).
Yeah, I'm not sure what people are getting from this...
If you already have the knowledge to understand the notes in the slides, it's probably pointless to you. If you don't, the slides make no sense at all since nothings explained.
I used to work as a "Kernel/Hypervisor Engineer" at that big company that sells books. People from outside the tech always thought I'm some kind of supervisor's supervisor ;)

A book from this person would be amazing!

Wow you are right. They look so similar. No idea about the OP then.
The guide itself is great.

Not a 100% perfect solution, but you can click the little printer icon in the top right corner and then print to PDF from your browser.

Can you share links to those tutorials?
This is obviously just a bunch of notes/slides for a course. It's borderline useless for anybody not taking the course.
Yeah, I'm not sure what people are getting from this...

What am I missing here that's so great ?
The word "hypervisor" always sounded so techo and cool to me!

Just make sure you look busy when the Ultravisor's walking around.
