Summary
Short concepts series after get-started: three packs that put names to what the learner already felt.
con_01_ontology — the building blocks: idea, ideaset, file, base, reference, attribute, and the focused map view ( cartographic_map ).
con_02_extension_tour — where those building blocks appear across the extension surfaces.
con_03_cli — the headless twin: cli_package / commands on the same `.reqlan` index ( init, search, analyse, parse, export ).
Runtime: about 8 – 12 minutes each. Optional for impatient builders; recommended before advanced.
Ancestor context
Audience: viewers who finished get-started ( or equivalent ) and want shared vocabulary without repeating the install loop. Outcome: define each core ontology noun in one sentence; place [base] as graph boundary ( including nesting ); distinguish [attribute_body] from optional `@` metadata; name [cartographic_map] as a chosen cut, not a mandatory dump. Runtime: 10 – 12 min. Demo: `reqlan-tutorials-demo` at get-started end state — `.reqlan/` present; `reqs/product.rq`, `reqs/auth.rq`, `src/login.ts`; caret starts on `welcome_flow` in `product.rq`. Related: [idea] [ideaset] [file] [base] [base_detail] [reference] [attribute] [attribute_body] [cartographic_map] [referenced_files] [configuration] [base_nesting] [multi_base_environment]
con_02_extension_tourAudience: viewers who know the ontology nouns and want a calm map of where they appear in the product. Outcome: name the primary [extension] surfaces and which job each owns; know where not to dig on day two. Runtime: 8 – 10 min. Demo: full get-started end state of `reqlan-tutorials-demo` ( `.reqlan`, `reqs/product.rq`, `reqs/auth.rq`, `src/login.ts` ); activity bar closed; Ideas Summary closed; chat available. Related: [extension] [activity_bar] [ideas_summary] [command_palette] [ai_integration] [html_export] [graph_view] [local_graph_view] [simple_views] [chat_skill_naming] [installation] [mcp_tools] [cli_package] [commands]
con_03_cliAudience: viewers who finished the extension tour and want the headless twin named — CI, scripts, and agents without living in the editor. Outcome: install and run `reqlan` / `rq`; [init] a [base]; run search, analyse, and parse; know `--cwd` / `--json` and one-base-per-run; know export shares [html_export] with the extension. Runtime: 9 – 11 min. Demo: advanced get-started end state of `reqlan-tutorials-demo` — `.reqlan` indexed, `reqs/product.rq` + `reqs/auth.rq` present; integrated terminal at workspace root; extension idle in background ( not the focus ). Related: [cli_package] [commands] [init] [html_export] [base] [multi_base_environment] [llm_first] [function_parity]
