Welcome to the CodeChat Editor
================================================================================
==============================

The CodeChat Editor is a GUI-based programmer's word processor /
[Jupyter](https://jupyter.org/) for software developers. This document describes
its basic features and use. In contrast, the [style guide](docs/style_guide.cpp)
provides strategies for effectively employing the CodeChat Editor to improve the
software development process.

Installation

Install the
[CodeChat Editor extension for Visual Studio code](extensions/VSCode/README.md).
For developers, see [building from source](docs/design.md).

Structure
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The CodeChat Editor divides source code into code blocks and documentation (doc)
blocks. These blocks are separated by newlines; the image below shows the

Editing
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------

Edits may be made either in the IDE hosting the CodeChat Editor, or within the
CodeChat Editor window itself. Edits made in one place are transferred to the
other after a short delay.

Navigation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------

Switching documents in the IDE likewise switches the document shown in the
CodeChat Editor. Likewise, following hyperlinks in the CodeChat Editor to a
local file loads that file in the IDE, as well as showing it in the Editor.

References to other files
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The CodeChat Editor supports hyperlinks to any recognized file type; to refer to
another source file, simply insert a hyperlink to it. For example,
