  2. QUICK_START_VIZ.md - Quick start guide for visualization
  3. REFERENCE.md - Technical reference documentation
  4. README.md - This file

Getting Started

For Developers

  1. Understand the Issues: Start with CODEBASE_ANALYSIS.md to understand all known problems
  2. Review the Plan: Read FIXES_IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md for specific implementation details
  3. Follow the Roadmap: Use PHASED_TODO.md to track development progress

For Users

  1. Quick Start: See QUICK_START_VIZ.md for basic usage
  2. Reference: Check REFERENCE.md for detailed documentation

Current Status

Critical Issues

  • Terminal Display: Broken - requires immediate attention
  • Menu Interaction: Broken - prevents user input
  • I/O Conflicts: Broken - causes terminal corruption

Development Phases

  • Phase 1 (Foundation): Not started
  • Phase 2 (Visualization): Not started

  • Phase 5 (Simulation): Not started

Quick Reference

Building the Project

cd /path/to/bigbang-simulator
cmake --build build_default

Running the Simulator

./build_default/bigbang_sim [options]

# Help
./build_default/bigbang_sim --help

# Menu mode
./build_default/bigbang_sim -m -t 1000

# Full simulation
./build_default/bigbang_sim -t 5000

Known Issues

See CODEBASE_ANALYSIS.md for complete list of issues.

Contributing

When contributing fixes or features:
