Finish the unblocked "Math / Ease" half of #25: the fixed-point
transcendentals deferred from #2. Vec.* stays blocked on the vec2 type
in #1.
- Math.exp, Math.log (natural), Math.pow — deterministic Q16.16 via two
new prelude fns in emit_math_prelude: @fn_fx_exp2 (range-reduced 5th-order
Taylor 2^f, then a clamped shift by the integer part) and @fn_fx_log2
(llvm.ctlz for the exponent + an atanh series on (m-1)/(m+1) for the
mantissa). exp=2^(x·log2 e), log=log2(x)·ln2, pow=2^(b·log2 a).
- Ease.elastic — ease-out elastic 2^(-10t)·sin((10t-0.75)·2pi/3)+1.
- Pure integer IR, so bit-identical on every platform. Results must fit the
Q16.16 range (|x| < 32768); larger magnitudes saturate (documented).
Test selfhost/tests/transcend.ludic (registered in the self-host suite) +
docs for all four. Reseeded; the C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds. All suites
green (24 self-host, 45 regression, 29 tool).

Implement the bulk of the namespaced-stdlib proposal (workshopsoft/ludic#2):
156 namespace methods across Math, Text, List, Ease, Collide, World, Net,
Sys, Save, Mem, extended Screen, Color functions, extended Random, and Time.
All deterministic fixed-point; self-hosting (C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds).
Compiler (selfhost/):
- Math.*: sqrt/sin/cos/tan/atan2/asin/acos (fixed-point runtime prelude —
bit-by-bit isqrt, 256-entry interpolated sine table, Ross atan2), plus
hypot/dist/dist2/deg_to_rad/rad_to_deg/posmod/wrap/ping_pong/snapped/
move_toward/smoothstep/lerp/remap/sign/floor/ceil/round.
- Text.* (complete): upper/lower/trim/repeat/pad, split/join/replace,
and the libc-backed queries.
- List.* (complete): insert/remove_at/remove/sort plus the earlier ops.
- Ease.* (in/out/in_out/back/bounce) and Collide.* (rects/point_rect/
circles/rect_circle).
- Phase 3: World/Net/Sys/Save namespaced over the bare builtins (byte-
identical IR) and Mem.* (bytes/words/copy/fill/peek/poke).
- Screen.* extended (line/circle/fill_circle/triangle/fill_triangle via new
runtime primitives; sprite/sprite_scaled aliases), Color.* functions,
Random.* (value/int/sign), Time.* (frame/delta/elapsed/now — new
game-loop frame counter).
- Fix a lexer bug: fixed-point literals with >4 fractional digits overflowed.
Docs & tooling:
- 129 new per-symbol doc pages; gen.py made data-driven (namespaces
discovered from the docs, no hardcoded list); new check-impl.py enforces
that every implemented namespace method / keyword / type / phase has a
doc page, wired into `x test-tools`. Document the previously-undocumented
keywords (break/continue/where/entry/new/public + and/or/not tokens).
- LSP: namespaced signature help (ns_method_sig) covering every namespace.
Tests: 12 new self-host/regression tests + a golden render for the drawing
primitives. All suites green (selfhost 21, regression 45, tools 29).

The type table lists fixeds (buffer of fixed values) and ptrs (buffer of
pointers) alongside words, but they had no reference pages. Add both, with
compilable examples; coverage inventory updated (types: 10 -> 12).

- Pipeline diagram stacks vertically with downward arrows on mobile (row on
>=720px) instead of the awkward wrap.
- Tooltip cards now open on CLICK (works on touch too), the card itself is
clickable and opens the symbol's page in a NEW TAB, and an outside click or
Escape closes it. Replaces the hover-only behavior.
- Reference pages get their own nav — Home / API Reference / Source ↗ — instead
of the landing-only Features/Examples/Get started anchors, and now include the
Source link.
- Unify the container width (1120px) across the landing and all reference pages
so the header and content align between them.
- Reword extern/@export FFI docs from "C-ABI" to "native" for consistency with
the site's no-C wording.
Verified in-browser at 375px and 1280px: vertical pipeline, click→card→new-tab,
outside-click close, correct reference nav, aligned container; 158 examples still
compile.

Rebuild the API Reference around one page per symbol and richer, verified content.
Pages & navigation
- One HTML page per symbol (kw-*, type-*, phase-*, screen-*, fn-*, annot-*, op-*)
instead of a single scrolling page; namespace overview pages (ns-screen …
ns-color) and a searchable index (api.html) with client-side fuzzy search.
- Sticky-header scroll offset (scroll-margin) so a jumped-to entry/param/color is
never hidden, plus a flash highlight on the scrolled-to target.
Deep linking in every snippet & example
- Namespace members split: `Screen`→namespace page, `fill_rectangle`→method page;
`Color`→palette page, `Charcoal`→its swatch — separately.
- Named arguments (`width:`) link to that parameter's anchor on the method page.
- Hover any token for a summary card built from the real API data (symbols.json).
Content & coverage
- Full authoritative surface documented from the compiler: every keyword, type,
the 6 phases (Start/Input/FixedUpdate/Update/LateUpdate/Render, each its own
page), all 22 annotations, namespace methods with parameter docs, builtins,
the world_* reflection ABI, networking, operators — 155 symbols.
- Longer, clearer explanations; "model"/"model instance" terminology, not "entity";
descriptive identifiers in every example (Position{column,row}, Velocity{delta_x,
delta_y}, Health{current,maximum}, Player/Enemy) — no Pos/Seg/x/dx.
- Accuracy fixes from compiler ground-truth: world_count() takes no arg,
world_query_next(property, cursor) arg order, event fields bind by name; dropped
`when` and `module` (not in the self-hosted parser).
Tooling
- inventory.json + check.py: coverage guard (every symbol has a page), duplicate-
token guard, and broken-link guard — fail CI so docs can't drift.
- validate.py: compiles every ```ludic example against bin/ludicc (158 compile).

Sourced from the compiler's confirmed builtin set and NETWORKING-DESIGN.md, so
the reference reflects the current language surface. 93 -> 104 symbols.

Replace the hardcoded landing page and minimal reference with a generated
documentation site driven by a single source of truth.
- docs/language/**: one file per symbol (93 keywords/types/builtins/namespace
methods/operators/annotations), each with front-matter (id, kind, tokens,
sig, tip) + description + a ```ludic example. Seeded by exploding the former
inline SECTIONS list; these files are now the source of truth.
- docs/site/: site.json (editable hero/features/showcase/messaging, not
hardcoded) + snippets/*.ludic (real programs shown on the landing page).
- tools/docgen/gen.py: generates index.html, api.html, ludic-highlight.js and
symbols.json. The highlighter's symbol tables, hover tips and jump anchors
are GENERATED from the per-symbol files — add a symbol and it is recognized,
tipped and linked in every snippet automatically. Python stdlib only.
- tools/docgen/check.py: verifies the pages contract + that no snippet token
links to a missing reference anchor.
- .forgejo/workflows/docs.yml: rebuilds and publishes to the pages branch on
every push to main touching the docs sources.
Consumes the new Screen.*/Color.*/named-arg API and the 221-color palette.
