Development

Modules Rebol2 was developed for small scripts, and didn't have any concept of "module isolation". Build System Discuss rebol-make and other build systems. Binding "Binding" refers to the concept of an invisible pointer that is annotated onto ANY-WORD! types, which connects them to an object where that word is defined (or more specifically, an ANY-CONTEXT!) Ports To discuss the port model and also the implementation of ports with respect to networking. Internals Internals of the Rebol language Loops Loops in Ren-C are a bit different from historical Redbol. GitHub List/discuss the common commands that are used when working at a simple level with git and the sources. Foreign Inspiration Take inspiration from other languages to create the same functionality in rebol. WASM There are currently two ways in which Ren-C is built to WebAssembly: Lexer This is for discussions about how to process UTF-8 text into Rebol elements. Naming Suggestions on naming new functions, and guidance on choosing names. Language Bridging Interfacing Rebol with other languages discussed here. Optimization This is a category for discussing performance and optimization ideas. Debugger It's best to walk before you run! C/C++ Implementation This category is for discussing issues in the source code for the interpreter itself. Functions Discussions of Functions and Generators, e.g. how things like RETURN work... or the mechanics of generators and composers like ADAPT, SPECIALIZE, ENCLOSE, HIJACK, etc. Errors For discussion of error handling and error mechanisms. Datatypes The datatypes category is for the discussion of the specific properties of datatypes themselves. Sample topics might include: Testing Discussion of Tests, Testing Methodology and Continuous Integration (e.g. Travis-CI). Semantics While the "Internals" discusses the bits and bytes of how things are implemented, this category is for discussing things design questions of the language... like what do [] should return.
