-== Source > Graph IR
+== Source
 
-== Graph IR > VM Bytecode
+Functional and pipeline-based.
+However, in contrast to classic shell commands,
+commands can have multiple outputs and multiple inputs.
+
+=== Commands
+
+The foundation of actually "doing" something.
+
+- Can have any, even infinite, amount of inputs and outputs.
+  - Their amounts may or may not be equal.
+- Inputs and outputs must have their types explicitly declared.
+- An command with
+  - at least one output is called a streamer.
+  - at least one input is called a consumer.
+  - _both_ at least one input and at least one output is _both_ a streamer and a consumer, and culminatively called a modifier.
+- May also contain spaces in its name.
+
+==== Inputs <input>
+
+- Based on position.
+- Inputs can be provided both through the pipeline and ad-hoc.
+- Ad-hoc inputs are called arguments.
+- So all of these are equivalent:
+
+```iowo
+1 | add 2
+add 1 2
+[ 1 2 ] | add
+```
+
+==== Outputs
+
+- Also based on position.
+
+=== Pipelines <pipeline>
+
+- Exchange data between streamers and consumers.
+
+==== Simple forwarding
+
+In the simplest case, where inputs map to outputs bijectively#footnote[one to one], pipelines are just pipes and forward unchanged:
+
+```iowo
+open owo.png | invert | save owo.png
+```
+
+==== Splitting <splitting>
+
+To handle each output of a streamer individually, they can be _split_:
+
+```iowo
+mask
+|> invert  -- would invert the unmasked part
+|> show    -- would show the masked part
+```
+
+==== Combination <combination>
+
+To throw multiple streamers into the inputs of a consumer, they can be _combined_:
+
+```iowo
+open base.png    >|
+open stencil.png >|
+mask
+```
+
+However, since lists are automatically spliced into inputs, this is equivalent to the above:
+
+```iowo
+[
+  open base.png,
+  open stencil.png,
+]
+| mask
+```
+
+=== Comments
+
+Done with any of `--` or `//`.
+
+=== Data types
+
+==== Lists
+
+- Signified by `[]` braces.
+- If thrown into a pipeline, it automatically works like a streamer.
+- Can be delimited by commas.
+  - Must be delimited by commas if a contained streamer takes an input.
+- May have a trailing comma.
+- Outputs of streamers are spliced into the contained list.
+  - In effect, they are automatically flattened.
+
+== Graph IR
 
 === Optimizer
 
-=== Compiler
+Merges and simplifies commands in the graph IR.
 
-== VM Bytecode > VM
+== Runtime
+
+=== Scheduler
+
+Looks at the graph IR and decides when the VM should execute what.
+
+=== VM <vm>
+
+= Open questions
+
+- @input
+  - At which position are arguments injected into command inputs?
+    - How could that be controlled if set to e.g. the end by default?
+    - Not all inputs are order-independent, e.g. `div`
+  - Should inputs and outputs really be positional?
+    - Could make more complex commands hard to read
+    - But keyworded could also make code very noisy
+    - Maybe a middle ground, such that at most 1 input is allowed to be positional?
+- @pipeline
+  - We need some way to reshuffle and reorder outputs and inputs in a pipeline
+- @splitting
+  - How would one split different outputs into a list?
+- Should outputs that are not thrown into a consumer be automatically displayed in some kind of debug view?
+  - Or should that be done instead using a debug `show` command or the like?
+- Should consumers be called sinks instead?
+  - Shorter
+  - More ambiguous if only looking at the first char though
