- Updated `.clangd` configuration to include additional include paths and feature flags tailored for ROM hacking workflows, optimizing IntelliSense support.
- Introduced `.pre-commit-config.yaml` for managing code quality checks and formatting, ensuring consistent code style across the project.
- Added `cmake-format.yaml` for CMake formatting configuration, promoting adherence to style guidelines.
- Enhanced CI workflows to include new actions for testing and building, improving overall reliability and efficiency in the development process.
Benefits:
- Streamlines development setup and improves code quality through automated checks.
- Facilitates better collaboration by ensuring consistent coding standards and configurations.
- Upgraded gRPC from v1.67.1 to v1.75.1 for improved Windows compatibility.
- Disabled BoringSSL ASM optimizations for better clang-cl support.
- Updated documentation to reflect changes in build times and reasons for using FetchContent over vcpkg for gRPC.
- Introduced a production-quality audio backend abstraction layer, enabling seamless integration with SDL2, SDL3, and custom platforms.
- Implemented APU handshake debugging features for improved monitoring of CPU-APU communication during audio processing.
- Upgraded gRPC to version 1.67.1, resolving MSVC template issues and enhancing compatibility with modern compilers.
- Added MSVC-specific compiler flags to optimize Windows build performance and reduce build times significantly.
- Updated documentation to reflect new audio system architecture and build instructions, ensuring clarity for developers.
- Removed the `validate-vs-build.yml` GitHub workflow as it was redundant.
- Enhanced the `verify-build-environment.ps1` script to include checks for Git configuration settings (`core.autocrlf` and `core.longpaths`) to prevent common issues on Windows.
- Updated build instructions in `B1-build-instructions.md` to emphasize the use of the verification script for troubleshooting and automatic fixes.
- Improved documentation in `B2-platform-compatibility.md` to reflect filesystem abstraction changes and ensure consistent cross-platform behavior.
- Introduced a new "Getting Started" guide to help users set up and use the YAZE software effectively.
- Added detailed "Testing Guide" outlining the testing framework and best practices for contributors.
- Created "Build Instructions" for macOS, Linux, and Windows, including environment verification and quick start with CMake presets.
- Documented the architecture and networking aspects of YAZE, focusing on service-oriented design and gRPC integration.
- Updated the index to reflect new documentation structure and improve navigation.
