Orkuncakilkaya a38195128f feat(stdlib): namespaced standard library (issue #2)
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).

Ludic for JetBrains IDEs

Works in IntelliJ IDEA (Community and Ultimate), CLion, GoLand, PyCharm, Rider, WebStorm — anything on the IntelliJ Platform 2023.2 through 2026.2 (since-build 232, until-build 262.*).

until-build 262 is deliberately ahead of the newest released platform — 2025.3 is build 253, and no 262 IDE exists yet. That headroom is the point: an until-build pinned to today's IDE gets the plugin auto-disabled the moment a user upgrades.

Two things are machine-checked rather than assumed, because a plugin that packages cleanly can still fail to load:

  • ./gradlew verifyPlugin runs JetBrains' own Plugin Verifier over the built artifact against 2025.3 and reports Compatible, with no deprecated or scheduled-for-removal API usages.
  • ./gradlew runIde boots a real IDEA 2025.3 with the plugin installed. The sandbox log line to look for is Loaded custom plugins: LSP4IJ (0.20.1), Ludic (1.0.0) in .intellijPlatform/sandbox/Ludic/IC-2025.3/log/idea.log.

If the plugin does not appear in Settings -> Plugins after installing, the cause is almost always that the IDE's build number is outside since-build..until-build. IntelliJ installs the declared dependency (LSP4IJ) from Marketplace first and only then rejects the incompatible plugin, so the symptom is "LSP4IJ got installed, mine did not". Check Help -> About for the build number and widen pluginUntilBuild in gradle.properties to match.

Building

Gradle must run on JDK 17–21. A newer JDK fails with a bare version number as the error message, which is not obvious the first time you see it:

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 21)     # macOS
cd tools/editors/jetbrains
./gradlew buildPlugin        # -> build/distributions/Ludic-1.0.0.zip
./gradlew runIde             # try it in a sandbox IDE

The first build downloads an IntelliJ IDEA Community distribution (over 1 GB), so expect it to take a while; later builds take seconds. Once the cache is warm,

LUDIC_TEST_JETBRAINS=1 bin/x test-tools

includes the plugin build in the toolchain's own test run.

Install the zip with Settings -> Plugins -> ⚙ -> Install Plugin from Disk. LSP4IJ is a required dependency; the IDE offers to install it for you.

Settings

Settings -> Languages & Frameworks -> Ludic — the path to ludic-lsp and to ludicc. Both default to bin/ under the project root, which is where bin/x tools puts them.
