About CodeArchaeology

CodeArchaeology is an educational platform dedicated to exploring and documenting programming languages across computing history, proving that languages from FORTRAN (1957) to modern Rust still run on contemporary systems.

Platform Mission

CodeArchaeology exists to discover how languages old and new still run on modern machines - macOS, Windows, and Docker. From FORTRAN to Rust, every language has a story to tell, and this platform brings those stories to life with working code examples and historical context.

Platform Highlights

75+ Languages

Comprehensive coverage from vintage to modern programming languages.

Since 1957

Languages dating back to FORTRAN in 1957.

100% Runnable

Every language can be executed on modern systems.

Docker Ready

Pre-configured Docker images for instant setup.

Featured Languages

Classic Languages

FORTRAN (1957), COBOL, BASIC, Pascal, and other foundational languages that shaped computing history.

Industry Standards

Java, C, C++, Python, and other languages that power modern enterprise software.

Modern Languages

Premier Code's Development of CodeArchaeology

Building an Educational Platform for Programming History

Premier Code created CodeArchaeology as an educational resource for developers and computing enthusiasts. The platform combines historical research, technical documentation, and modern deployment practices to make programming language history accessible and interactive.

Technical Implementation

Hugo Static Site

Fast, modern static site generator enabling rapid content updates

Docker Images

Pre-configured containers for instant language environment access

GitHub Integration

Code repository hosting with automated deployment pipelines

Client Testimonial

Working with Premier Code, Inc was an absolute game-changer for CodeArchaeology.dev. From a standing start—just a domain name and a vague idea—they had our full Hugo-based static site designed, built, deployed to DigitalOcean App Platform, and running securely on HTTPS in only three days.

The site is clean, lightning-fast, and—most importantly—incredibly easy for a non-developer to maintain. Adding new posts, updating themes, or tweaking content is now just a matter of editing Markdown files and pushing to GitHub.
