<t-b>
The purpose of Bits is to present a sequence of compileable code snippets that illustrate syntax,
idioms, and small patterns, for each of a set of languages. With these a user can learn a new language
by looking at a sequence of small codes in the new language and directly compare each of those with snippets
from a familiar language. At this time we provide code for the programming languages: C++, Rust, C#,
Python, and JavaScript.

a brief introduction to the Bits track. It describes the purpose and some of the installed parts.

You will probably want to view "picture-in-picture" or "full-screen"
so details are large enough to be seen easily.

Running as "picture in picture" allows you to move to other web pages while still
watching and listening to the video.

The first three items in the Bits list, below, are introductory, helping you get ready to
start coding in any of the five languages. They provide step-by-step instructions for installing
and using development tools appropriate for each language.
</t-b>
<t-b>
The rest of the items, Hello, Data, Objects, ... are coding examples with instructions for building,
running, and debugging code.
</t-b>
<h3 id="snip">2.0 Bits - Background & Code Snippets</h3>
<t-b>
Here are the currently planned Bits: background information and code snippets.
The ordering of some of these may change. Ordering so that each code snippet depends only on its
predecessors doesn't necessary provide a good logical ordering. I'll be thinking about this
as the list gets completed.

<h3 id="build">4.0 Build</h3>
<t-b>
The languages have different tool chains, but the <a target="_blank" href="Resources/Bits/Bits_Tooling.html">Tooling</a>
link, above, shows that build processes can be very similar. Our goals are to build on Windows,
macOS, and Linux.
We do that using Visual Studio Code as a text editor and building from its integrated terminal.
</t-b>
<t-b>
<ul class="tight" style="margin:0.5em 2em;">
<li>
C++ code was built from the command line using CMake.
</li>
<li>
Rust code was built from the command line using the rust cargo tool.
</li>
<li>
C# code was built from the command line with dotnet CLI.
</li>
<li>
Python code was executed from the command line with python interpreter.
</li>
<li>
JavaScript code was translated and executed by loading its demo page in a modern brower (firefox).
</li>
</ul>
Three of these builds, C++, Rust, and C#, work in similar ways on the cited OS platforms. Python and
JavaScript are loaded and executed on demand.
We will give step-by-step instructions for downloading and configuring tool chains for all these languages.
</t-b>
<t-b>
VS Code, with the help from plugins for each language, can build and debug using launch.json files.
We will give step-by-step instructions for building from the terminal and launching from VS Code.
</t-b>
<h3 id="status">5.0 Status</h3>
<t-b>
The Bits UI is stable and seems to work well. It seems to be intuitive and easy to maintain.
User testing is starting, and you can supply feedback
<a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/JimFawcett/Bits/discussions/1">here</a>. That requires login to a
github account.
</t-b>
<t-b>
Code snippets and discussion are being added and should be complete by the end of Fall 2023.
