Subject: [NTG-context] request for talk/article on writing modules
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2024 17:06:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b96d6561-0a67-4c5d-be55-36b626a5ccc2@fiee.net> (raw)

Hi wizards,
I’d really appreciate an introduction “how to write a ConTeXt module” at 
the meeting and in the next journal.

* How does this namespace and setup stuff work?
* When does it make sense to use variables, macros or parameters?
* Should I use the namespace for internally used MP graphics, 
environments, buffers etc.?

I guess I can figure out most of it on my own, but I think we should 
have some easily understandable documentation.

Or do we already have something and I didn’t find it?

I can contribute the part about distribution.

Best, Hraban
