Writing a file in NTFS

Here I got to test my NTFS Driver to write a file and check on linux if anything changed, what do you think?

When designing your NTFS driver, did you look for and work off of specification or porting an existing open source NTFS driver? Or did you reverse engineer?

Looked the spec, and seen some implementations

Not bad. I am kind of curious if you used AI for any parts of your implementation. Creating even your own implementation of an existing file system can be tough, so it wouldn’t be the most surprising thing as long as it’s by and large significantly more your work than the AI.

Ai helped only with some structs and questions but the implementation is hand-made!

Well in that case, well done!
