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.

A book from this person would be amazing!

The guide itself is great.

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...

This is obviously just a bunch of notes/slides for a course. It's borderline useless for anybody not taking the course.

The word "hypervisor" always sounded so techo and cool to me!

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).
