How to develop?

Ninja-IDE

Ninja IDE is a direct dependency of develop-activity, Ninja IDE is obtained from https://github.com/ninja-ide/ninja-ide Ninja releases new introspection libraries which are used by develop activity to check the code.

Porting Ninja IDE

Ninja IDE comes bundled with its original GUI, its tests, installer etc. However these are unnecessary. Moreover, Ninja IDE Python3 branch is still in beta. So there are bugs in the code. For temporary fixes and removing code, there are patches on https://github.com/srevinsaju/ninja-ide/tree/minima

The porting, or fixes are provided in patches, referred to in the folder https://github.com/srevinsaju/ninja-ide/tree/minima/patch-20191229 Apply each patch to the latest Ninja-IDE version, so that the app is compatible, as well as we reduce the size of the develop-activity without adding unused dependencies.

Additional Notes

Ninja IDE is a very old repository with a lot of commits. After cloning the latest repository and applying the patches mentioned above, consider removing .git, .gitignore to further reduce the size and to prevent internal conflicts.
