dim, a small disc image mounter for Windows
Claude Code wrote most of the Rust code, tests, docs and CI for a free, MIT-licensed disc image mounter for Windows 10 and 11 that uses Windows' own virtual-disk API instead of an extra driver.

The full story
dim is a free, MIT-licensed disc image mounter for Windows 10 and 11 that turns ISO, CUE/BIN, IMG, NRG, MDS and CCD images into real optical drives using Windows' own virtual-disk API, with no driver and no admin rights, in about 340 KB. Mounts last only while dim runs, so a crash detaches every drive cleanly. It doesn't emulate audio tracks. Claude Code generated most of the Rust code, tests, docs and CI; the maker set the goals and design, reviewed the code and tested it on Windows.
