language. For the language itself, its documentation, and downloads of the

<p class="commentary">Almost everything here is a "web", or "literate program", powered by <a href="../../inweb/docs/index.html" class="internal">inweb</a>.
|
|
Those new to literate programming may want first to try the modest examples
|
|
there (say, <a href="../../inweb/docs/goldbach/index.html" class="internal">goldbach</a>), and skim the <a href="../../inweb/docs/index.html" class="internal">inweb</a> manual.

<p class="commentary">These pages host "woven", human-readable, forms of the source and are intended
|
|
for browsing. To obtain and build the software, or to see resources which
|

are not webs and thus not here, see: <a href="https://github.com/ganelson/inform" class="external">https://github.com/ganelson/inform</a>

<p class="commentary firstcommentary"><a id="SP2" class="paragraph-anchor"></a><b>§2. </b>The Inform 7 compiler comes with a large penumbra of supporting resources,
|
|
so there are around 50 webs in this repository:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul class="items"><li>(a) The compiler is built from around 20 modules, plus three front-end command
|
|
line tools controlling them. See <a href="compiler.html" class="internal">compiler</a> for a map.
|
|
</li><li>(b) See <a href="other.html" class="internal">other</a> for command-line tools useful for building or working with
|
|
Inform, but not involving compilation: <a href="inblorb/index.html" class="internal">inblorb</a>, a packager; <a href="indoc/index.html" class="internal">indoc</a>, to
|
|
format documentation; <a href="inpolicy/index.html" class="internal">inpolicy</a>, a lint-like tool for checking Inform's
|
|
source code; and <a href="inrtps/index.html" class="internal">inrtps</a>, to format run-time problem messages.
|
|
</li><li>(c) The extensions "Basic Inform" (<a href="basic_inform/index.html" class="internal">basic_inform</a>) and "Standard Rules"
|
|
(<a href="standard_rules/index.html" class="internal">standard_rules</a>), together with a number of "kits" of precompiled Inter
|
|
code: see <a href="extensions.html" class="internal">extensions</a>.
|
|
</li><li>(d) Small unit-test tools to exercise the modules mentioned in (a): see <a href="units.html" class="internal">units</a>.

<p class="commentary firstcommentary"><a id="SP3" class="paragraph-anchor"></a><b>§3. </b>Three webs are conspicuously missing, but only because they are on similar

mini-websites on other Github repositories:
|

</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul class="items"><li>(a) <a href="../../inweb/docs/index.html" class="internal">inweb</a> itself, and its function library, <a href="../../inweb/docs/foundation-module/index.html" class="internal">foundation</a>, which all of
|
|
the Inform tools use;
|
|
</li><li>(b) the testing utility <a href="../../intest/docs/index.html" class="internal">intest</a>, which has a repository of its own.
