    There was this project though.

    The best part is that it's faster than manual management. People will tell you they need do to malloc and free manually for performance, but when you actually run the numbers GC wins for a majority of use cases.

    if you need code to understand garbage collection, there is walkthrough of garbage collector and C code at http://maplant.com/gc.html

    I tweaked it to work on amd64 and started adding register scanning based on what eatonphil's discord people told me to do.

    It's not fit for any purpose but more of a learning exercise.
