preview rendered world with inotify (#1756)
Opens a live-reloading preview of the world in VS Code.

The renderer has been modified to optionally render a blank image instead of crashing upon invalid YAML.

## Prerequisites:
Install inotify tools:

    sudo apt install inotify-tools

## Usage:

    scripts/preview-world-vscode.sh data/scenarios/Fun/horton.yaml

Once the VS Code editor tabs are opened, one can press <kbd>CTRL</kbd> + <kbd>\\</kbd> (backslash) with the image selected to split the editor pane horizontally.
One may then navigate to the left-pane's copy of the image preview with <kbd>CTRL</kbd> + <kbd>PageUp</kbd>, and then <kbd>CTRL</kbd> + <kbd>w</kbd> will close the redundant image preview.

Swarm

Build Status GitHub release (latest by date) Swarm release on Hackage Contributor Covenant ircchat GitHub Contributors

Swarm is a 2D programming and resource gathering game. Program your robots to explore the world and collect resources, which in turn allows you to build upgraded robots that can run more interesting and complex programs. More info can be found on the Swarm website.

World 0 after scanning a tree and making a log.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for information about various ways you can contribute to Swarm development!

Building

If you just want to play the game, head over to the Swarm website for installation instructions. If you want to build Swarm from source (e.g. in order to contribute, or to test out the latest bleeding-edge unreleased features), read on.

  1. Clone the Swarm repository, e.g.

    git clone https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm.git
    
  2. If you don't already have the stack tool:

    1. Get the ghcup tool, a handy one-stop utility for managing all the different pieces of a Haskell toolchain.

    2. Use ghcup to install stack:

      ghcup install stack
      
  3. Now use stack to build and run Swarm:

    cd /path/to/the/swarm/repo
    stack run
    
  4. Go get a snack while stack downloads a Haskell compiler and all of Swarm's dependencies.

  5. You might also want to check out the scripts directory, which contains an assortment of useful scripts for developers.
