Getting Started

Follow these instructions to build and run the Stride compiler and editor.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/VxTi/cstride.git
   cd cstride

   The packages/ directory contains the compiler and editor source code.

Building the Compiler

Run the following commands from the project root directory:

cd packages/compiler
cmake -S . -B cmake-build-debug
cmake --build cmake-build-debug --target cstride

Optionally: Add the binary to your $PATH, if you wish to use it directly.

Running the Compiler

From the packages/compiler directory, you can either run it directly:

./cmake-build-debug/cstride <file_path>

Or if you added it to your PATH:

cstride <file_path>

Running the Editor

The web-based editor provides a convenient way to write Stride code with syntax highlighting and integrated terminal.

Local Setup and Running

To run the editor locally on your machine:

1. Navigate to the editor directory:

   cd packages/editor

2. Install dependencies: Using pnpm ensures fast and efficient dependency management.

   pnpm install

3. Start the development server: Launch the editor in development mode.

   pnpm start

4. Access the Editor: Once started, the editor will be available at http://localhost:5173. Open this URL in your web browser.

Features

• Real-time Syntax Highlighting: Visualizes Stride code structure.
• Integrated Terminal: Run your Stride programs directly within the editor environment.
• Local Development: Test changes to the editor itself or use it as your primary development environment for Stride.
