    I Designed My Own 16-bit CPU AstroSam, 16 years old, designed a 16-bit CPU called Astro-8, created an assembly language for it and finally created a compiled language named Armstrong (deal with it). All the video is entertaining and the work is impressive when you take into account Sam's age. All the code and schemas are on GitHub. I also discovered Logisim-evolution tool watching the video.
