# Development updates Week 8-9


## Development updates

- Delving into interpreters, debcrafter, a tool for defining a language for intelligent, dependent packaging, required an in-depth exploration of its internals.
- I was waiting for mentor to discuss debcrafter, to grasp the nuances of configuration and service packages, a previously challenging aspect for me.
- This two weeks, was quite boring but at the same time very hard. Compilers are very interesting, but it takes a lot of time if building from stratch to really understand the process.
- I have the feeling that this two week of research was excessive, but I as I'm writing this note later, I think it made a lot of sense to understand the theory in more detail.
