As I port the WGT to my OS (a.k.a. make it work on my OS), I am using the following directories: As I port the WGT to my OS (a.k.a. make it work on my OS), I am using the following directories:

Please note: I am neither a Node.js developer, nor a Swift developer, and so the controllers are purely samples that serve my purpose. They are not intended to be exemplars! I am very aware of the multitudinous problems with both...
Building Building
-------- --------
So... to build the first sample simply type `cp samples/wgt01.c .` from the top-level directory, and then type `make`. When you boot with the generated _kernel8.img_ you will see the screen go into 320x200 (VGA!) mode and draw a white line from corner to corner. If you do, the library is doing its stuff!
