## Quick Start

### 1. Include in Interactive Platform

```html
<!-- In your interactive.paiml.com HTML -->
<script type="module">
  import bashrsInteractive from './interactive-paiml/bashrs-interactive-api.js';

  // Initialize
  await bashrsInteractive.init();
  console.log(`bashrs v${bashrsInteractive.getVersion()} ready`);

  // Load a lesson
  const lesson = bashrsInteractive.getLesson('config-001-path');
  console.log(lesson.objective);
  // "Learn to avoid duplicate PATH entries"

  // Lint student code with educational feedback
  const result = await bashrsInteractive.lintCode(lesson.code);
  console.log(result.issues[0].educational);
  // "Duplicate PATH entries waste memory and slow down command lookups..."
</script>
```

### 2. Real-Time Linting

```javascript
// Initialize once
await bashrsInteractive.init();

// Set up editor with real-time feedback
editor.on('change', (code) => {
  bashrsInteractive.lintRealtime(code, (result) => {
    if (result.error) {
      console.error(result.error);
      return;
    }

    // Update UI with issues
    displayIssues(result.issues);

    // Show educational tips
    showTips(result.educational);
  });
});
```

  expectedIssues: string[],  // Rule IDs to fix
  hint: string,
  solution: string
}
```

**Example**:
```javascript
const lesson = bashrsInteractive.getLesson('config-001-path');
console.log(lesson.title);      // "PATH Deduplication"
console.log(lesson.objective);  // "Learn to avoid duplicate PATH entries"
console.log(lesson.hint);       // "Look for repeated directory entries"
```

### `bashrsInteractive.getAllLessons(): Array<Object>`

Get metadata for all available lessons.

**Returns**: Array of lesson summaries
```javascript
[
  { id: 'config-001-path', title: 'PATH Deduplication', difficulty: 'beginner' },
  { id: 'config-002-quotes', title: 'Variable Quoting', difficulty: 'beginner' },
  { id: 'config-003-aliases', title: 'Alias Management', difficulty: 'beginner' },
  { id: 'config-004-determinism', title: 'Deterministic Configs', difficulty: 'intermediate' }
]
```

### `bashrsInteractive.checkLessonSolution(lessonId, studentCode): Promise<Object>`

Validate student's solution for a lesson.

**Parameters**:
- `lessonId` (string): Lesson identifier
- `studentCode` (string): Student's solution code

**Returns**: Validation result
```typescript
{
  success: boolean,
  fixed: string[],      // Rule IDs that were fixed

```

**Example**:
```javascript
const result = await bashrsInteractive.checkLessonSolution(
  'config-001-path',
  studentCode
);

} else {
  console.log(`🔧 Still need to fix: ${result.remaining.join(', ')}`);
}
```

## Available Lessons

### Lesson 1: PATH Deduplication (config-001-path)

**Difficulty**: Beginner
**Objective**: Learn to avoid duplicate PATH entries

**Starting Code**:
```bash
# Adding directories to PATH
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"  # What's wrong here?
```

**Expected Issue**: CONFIG-001 (Duplicate PATH entry)

**Hint**: Look for repeated directory entries in PATH

**Educational Explanation**: Duplicate PATH entries waste memory and slow down command lookups. Keep PATH clean by adding each directory only once.

---

### Lesson 2: Variable Quoting (config-002-quotes)

**Difficulty**: Beginner
**Objective**: Learn when and why to quote variable expansions

**Starting Code**:
```bash
# Setting up project directory
export PROJECT_DIR=$HOME/my projects
export EDITOR=vim
```

**Expected Issue**: CONFIG-002 (Unquoted variable expansion)

**Hint**: What happens if $HOME contains spaces?

**Educational Explanation**: Unquoted variable expansions can break if the value contains spaces or special characters. Always quote variables: "$VAR" instead of $VAR.

---

### Lesson 3: Alias Management (config-003-aliases)

**Difficulty**: Beginner
**Objective**: Learn to avoid conflicting alias definitions

**Starting Code**:
```bash
# Shell aliases
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias ll='ls -lah'
alias ls='ls -G'  # Redefining ls - is this intentional?
```

**Expected Issue**: CONFIG-003 (Duplicate alias)

**Hint**: The same alias is defined twice with different values

**Educational Explanation**: Redefining the same alias multiple times creates confusion. Each alias should have one clear definition.

---

### Lesson 4: Deterministic Configs (config-004-determinism)

**Difficulty**: Intermediate
**Objective**: Learn why $RANDOM and timestamps cause problems

**Starting Code**:
```bash
# Session setup
export SESSION_ID=$RANDOM
export BUILD_TAG="build-$(date +%s)"
export USER_NAME="alice"
```

**Expected Issues**: CONFIG-004 (Non-deterministic constructs) × 2

**Hint**: Which values will be different every time?

**Educational Explanation**: Using $RANDOM, timestamps, or process IDs makes your config non-deterministic. This breaks reproducibility and testing.

---

## Event System

### `bashrsInteractive.on(event, callback): void`

Register event listeners for module events.

**Events**:
- `ready`: WASM module initialized
- `lint`: Linting completed
- `error`: Error occurred

**Example**:
```javascript
bashrsInteractive.on('ready', (data) => {
  console.log(`bashrs v${data.version} initialized`);
});

bashrsInteractive.on('lint', (result) => {
  console.log(`Found ${result.issue_count} issues`);
});

bashrsInteractive.on('error', (error) => {
  console.error('Linting error:', error);
});
```

---

## Utility Methods

### `bashrsInteractive.getVersion(): string`

Get bashrs version.

```javascript
const version = bashrsInteractive.getVersion();
console.log(version);  // "6.2.0"
```

### `bashrsInteractive.isReady(): boolean`

Check if WASM module is initialized.

```javascript
if (bashrsInteractive.isReady()) {
  // Safe to call linting methods
}
```

---

## Performance Characteristics

| Operation | Target | Actual | Status |
|-----------|--------|--------|--------|
| WASM Load | <5s | 149ms | ✅ 30x faster |
| Lint (1KB) | <100ms | ~50ms | ✅ 2x faster |
| Realtime Debounce | 300ms | 300ms | ✅ Optimal |
| Memory per lint | <10MB | ~5MB | ✅ 2x better |

## Integration Guide

### Step 1: Copy Files

```bash
# Copy interactive-paiml package to your platform
cp -r interactive-paiml /path/to/interactive.paiml.com/bashrs/
cp -r pkg /path/to/interactive.paiml.com/bashrs/
```

### Step 2: Basic Integration

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>Bash Learning Platform</title>
</head>
<body>
  <textarea id="code-editor"></textarea>
  <div id="issues"></div>

  <script type="module">
    import bashrsInteractive from './bashrs/interactive-paiml/bashrs-interactive-api.js';

    async function init() {
      await bashrsInteractive.init();

      const editor = document.getElementById('code-editor');
      editor.addEventListener('input', (e) => {
        bashrsInteractive.lintRealtime(e.target.value, (result) => {
          displayIssues(result.issues);
        });
      });
    }

    function displayIssues(issues) {
      const container = document.getElementById('issues');
      container.innerHTML = issues.map(issue => `
        <div class="issue">
          <strong>${issue.rule_id}</strong>: ${issue.message}
          <p class="educational">${issue.educational}</p>
        </div>
      `).join('');
    }

    init();
  </script>
</body>
</html>
```

### Step 3: Add Lesson System

See `lesson-demo.html` for complete example with:
- Lesson sidebar navigation
- Code editor with syntax highlighting
- Real-time linting feedback
- Hint system
- Solution validation

## Browser Compatibility

| Browser | Status | Tested |

## Troubleshooting

### WASM fails to load

**Error**: `Failed to initialize bashrs WASM`

**Solution**: Ensure correct MIME type for .wasm files:
```
Content-Type: application/wasm
```

### Module not found

**Error**: `Cannot find module './pkg/bashrs.js'`

**Solution**: Verify file paths are correct relative to `bashrs-interactive-api.js`.

### Real-time linting too slow

**Problem**: Linting fires too frequently while typing

**Solution**: Increase debounce delay:
```javascript
bashrsInteractive.lintRealtime(code, callback, 500);  // 500ms delay
```

### CORS errors

**Error**: `CORS policy blocked`

**Solution**: Serve files from same origin or configure CORS headers:
```
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp
Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin
```
