Smalls Docs

Smalls is the active rules/script authoring path in rollnw. Older docs may focus on NWScript parsing or C++ rule modifiers; those systems still exist, but Smalls is where new language, embedding, and authored RPG toolset/game rules work should be expected to land.

Read the architecture documents in this order:

1. conventions.md — normative ownership, dependency, data protocol, failure, and persistence rules.
2. profile-packages.md — selected profile root, module conventions, package resolution, and bootstrap ordering.
3. propset-architecture.md — detailed propset, native component, ABI bridge, and object-domain storage rules.
4. load-config.md — typed shared rules/config batches and their relationship to live propsets and native values.
5. spec.md — SmallS language and virtual-machine design.

The normative documents describe the target architecture. Current deviations and their migration sequence are tracked in issues/smalls-module-ownership-and-profile-boundaries.md.
