# Book Goals and Style
|
|
|
|
So, what's this book actually gonna teach you?
|
|
|
|
My goal is certainly not just showing off the crate. Programming for the GBA is
|
|
weird enough that I'm trying to teach you all the rest of the stuff you need to
|
|
know along the way. If I do my job right then you'd be able to write your own
|
|
crate for GBA stuff just how you think it should all go by the end.
|
|
|
|
Overall the book is sorted more for easy review once you're trying to program
|
|
something. The GBA has a few things that can stand on their own and many other
|
|
things are a mass of interconnected concepts, so some parts of the book end up
|
|
having to refer you to portions that you haven't read yet. The chapters and
|
|
sections are sorted so that _minimal_ future references are required, but it's
|
|
unavoidable that it'll happen sometimes.
|
|
|
|
The actual "tutorial order" of the book is the
|
|
[Examples](../05-examples/00-index.md) chapter. Each section of that chapter
|
|
breaks down one of the provided examples in the [examples
|
|
directory](https://github.com/rust-console/gba/tree/master/examples) of the
|
|
repository. We go over what sections of the book you'll need to have read for
|
|
the example code to make sense, and also how we apply the general concepts
|
|
described in the book to the specific example cases.
