Alpha Version 1.0 is Out!

· 2 min read

Finally, we are at Alpha, version 1.0 is out!

As of today, 2023/12/06 the Alpha version of the technical reference is out.

These are a few of the improvements since last time:

  • Complete Specification Update: There were parts of the spec missing because of an issue of files getting truncated before they were converted into markdown. I have now recovered the truncated parts, parsed them, and added them to the specification
  • A large amount of code now shows up in code blocks with syntax highlighting.
  • A lot of symbols like , , and a few others are now properly displayed
  • The Index, Figures, and Credits were parsed to be displayed properly per the original
  • The search index was updated to account for the new content
  • A bunch of formatting issues for the markdown to be displayed properly

What Alpha version means

  • Now we are finally open to contributions of examples and added explanation
    • Contribution stubs were added at the end of Dictionary Items type pages see for example progn
  • The main text is unlikely to change much except for:
    • Minor formatting issues
    • Maybe there are still some symbols that are not rendering properly
    • Code Blocks for syntax highlighting in the non dictionary type pages have not yet been added
    • Tables have to be formatted
  • Therefore we are open to other contributions that are more meaningful in terms of content and development, please see our To Do Page for how you can contribute!
