Got an initial variant of the drop down widget, not completely set on it.. I put some more time to figuring out how I'm going to be ideomatically constructing the widgets. screen.odin I think its getting pretty close to what it will be like. I'm ready to start lifting the input box. I'll be adding the constraints when I lift it. Added the option to toggle the debug text in screenspace Added the fixes from the ui_layout_children_horizontally for margins to ui_layout_children_vertically Known issue: There is a bug with test_whitespace that forced me todo a null check on a box. Not sure why. It needs to be redone anyway.. (compose it with the h/vboxes instead) There is some sublime files added in, started to use it. |

Sectr Prototype
This prototype aims to flesh out ideas I've wanted to explore futher on code editing & related tooling.
The things to explore:
- 2D canvas for laying out code visualized in various types of ASTs
- WYSIWYG frontend ASTs
- Making AST editing as versatile as text editing.
- High-performance UI framework designed & built for AST editing.
- Generating a large amount of UI widget boxes with proper auto-layout & no perceptible rendering-lag or input lag for interactions (frametimes stable).
- Model-View-Controller interface between code managed by a 'backend' (both in memory and filesystem) and the UX composition (which has separate filesystem composition).
The project is so far in a "codebase boostrapping" phase.
The project's is organized into 2 modules sectr_host & sectr. The host module loads the main module & its memory. Hot-reloading it's dll when it detects a change.
The dependencies are:
- Odin Compiler (Slightly custom fork)
- Added #region, #endregion directives support for editors
- I added support for 'monlithic packages' or 'uniform-across-subdirectories packages'. It allows me to organize the main package with sub-directories.
- Odin repo's base, core, and vendor(raylib) libaries
- An ini parser
- backtrace
- Powershell (if you want to use my build scripts)
Major 'codebase modules':
- Engine : Main loop, logging, client interface for host, etc
- Has the following definitions: startup, shutdown, reload, tick, clean_frame (which host hooks up to when managing the client dll)
- Env : Core Memory & State definition + orchestration
- Font Provider : Manages fonts.
- When loading fonts, the provider currently uses raylib to generate bitmap glyth sheets for a range of font sizes at once.
- Goal is to eventually render using SDF shaders.
- Grime : Name speaks for itself, stuff not directly related to the target features to iterate upon for the prototype.
- Defining dependency aliases or procedure overload tables, rolling own allocator, data structures, etc.
- Input : All human input related features
- Base input features (polling & related) are platform abstracted from raylib
- Input Events
- Parser : AST generation, editing, and serialization. A 1/3 of this prototype will most likely be this alone.
- Project : Encpasulation of user config/state separate from persistent app config/state as a 'project'
- Manages the codebase (program model database)
- Manages workspaces : View compositions of the codebase
- UI : Core graphic user interface framework, AST visualzation & editing, backend visualization
- Will most likely be the bulk of this prototype.
- PIMGUI (Persistent Immediate Mode User Interface)
- Auto-layout
- Supports heavy procedural generation of box widgets
Due to the nature of the prototype there are 'sub-groups' such as the codebase being its own ordeal as well as the workspace. They'll be elaborated in their own documentation
