Experimental Branches

The project is separated into various Git branches for different levels of friendliness/modern/variety experiments.

Realistic

The default branch is realistic, which is the currently recommended level for beginners to avoid practical obstacles while still being relatively friendly and advanced.

Assertions

Limitations

• The build system doesn't allow spaces in filenames/paths
• The build system is not non-ASCII friendly
• The I18N toolkit only allows English strings in source code.
• Only use undercase alphabets and dashes(-) as filenames/path components, for command-line autocomplete friendliness
• The build system may place files outside of it's build-solutions directory(which is dirty, but still widely common for many build solutions)

Friendliness

• The build system allows custom names(as long as it fits in the limitation)

Space Friendly

Thespace-friendly branch is the experimental branch that believes spaces in filenames/paths are reasonable and should be supported by the build environment.

Assertions

Limitations

• The build system is not non-ASCII friendly
• The I18N toolkit only allows English strings in source code.

Friendliness

• The build system allows custom names(as long as it fits in the limitation)
• The build system allows spaces in filenames/paths

Unicode Friendly

The unicode-friendly branch is the experimental branch that believes Unicode characters in filenaes/paths/code is reasonable and should be supported by the build environment.

Assertions

Limitations

None.

Friendliness

• The build system allows custom names(as long as it fits in the limitation)
• The build system allows spaces in filenames/paths
• The build system allows Unicode characters in filenames/paths
• The I18N tookit allows Unicode strings in source code and don't assume English locale

Control Case Branches

Old-fashioned

Advanced? Nope! Stick to the quo!

The old-fashioned branch is the non-experimental branch that follows (and don't question) any conventions. Of course this is the most safe one, but it's boring.
