# Brainfuck
Brainfuck is an extremely simple [esoteric programming language](esoland.md); simple by its specification (consisting only of 8 commands) but intentionally very hard to program in. It works similarly to a pure [Turing machine](turing_machine.md). In a way it is kind of [beautiful](beauty.md) by its [simplicity](minimalism.md). It is very easy to write your own brainfuck [interpreter](interpreter.md).
There exist [self-hosted](self_hosting.md) brainfuck interpreters which is pretty fucked up.
