📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The README now explains that source runs do not provide the language servers included in builds. It distinguishes Python support through PyRight from web-file support through Monaco and lists themes.js in the project layout.

The README describes PyRight for Python files and Monaco’s built-in language support for web files. It also lists themes.js as loading files from the themes/ directory.

Developers may expect clangd or PyRight to start from a clean source checkout when the required files are not present. Clarify the source/build distinction; this is a bounded documentation issue, not a merge blocker.

source checkout runs without servers because clangd and Pyright files are
absent, while source mode looks for them in bin/ and PythonLSP/ and packaged

Open a `.c`, `.cc`, `.cpp`, `.cxx`, `.h`, `.hh`, `.hpp`, or `.hxx` file to start clangd. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON and Python files use Monaco's built-in language support without clangd. For best project-wide header support, keep `.clangd`, `.git`, or `compile_commands.json` at the project root.
>[!WARNING]
> The below file types and language servers are not available in the source but they are included in the builds. So running `npm start` will not start with any language servers, Though the IDE should still function.

Clarify when file opening starts language servers.

The source-mode and packaged-build instructions need to distinguish the server files from the editor’s file support.

Suggested README clarification
 >[!WARNING]
-> The below file types and language servers are not available in the source but they are included in the builds. So running `npm start` will not start with any language servers, Though the IDE should still function.
+> The source checkout does not include the language-server files. In source mode, `npm start` looks for clangd in `bin/` and Pyright in `PythonLSP/`; a clean checkout therefore runs without language servers. Packaged builds resolve these files from the application resources. The editor can still open files without language servers.
 
-Open a `.c`, `.cc`, `.cpp`, `.cxx`, `.h`, `.hh`, `.hpp`, or `.hxx` file to start clangd. Open a `.py` file to start PyRight server HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript and JSON files use Monaco's built-in language support without clangd. For best project-wide header support, keep `.clangd`, `.git`, or `compile_commands.json` at the project root.
+When the language-server files are available, open a `.c`, `.cc`, `.cpp`, `.cxx`, `.h`, `.hh`, `.hpp`, or `.hxx` file to start clangd. Open a `.py` file to start Pyright.
