Repositories

cables development is spread across five git-repositories

cables_dev

the current repository is the "root folder" for all cables development, it holds documentation, helper scripts to set up your environment and keep it up to date.

it also contains shared code between the different projects and holds npm commands to run watchers for file changes during development (see below).

cables

the cables repository holds all the core ops of cables, and everything that is needed to run cables patches (in the editor, but also in exported patches).

cables_ui

cables_ui contains all code that makes up the cables editor, the ui. everything that is needed to work on patches on cables.gl and in cables standalone lives in this repository.

cables_electron

the repository to bring all of the above together to have a running version of the cables ui with the cables code and ops. runs (and builds/packs) an electron executable that can be used to create patches locally, or develop on core and ui features on your local machine.

cables_extensionops

a repository containing all the extensions on cables.gl that are not in the core. it is not needed for local development but will give you a few more ops to work with.
