Attached (strip) — an ArchLang floor plan example
A one-bedroom flat with no hand-computed coordinates: a strip of rooms, openings pinned along walls, furniture placed in rooms.
This plan compiles to 2 rooms, 28 m² of floor area and 2 windows; every room is reachable from the entrance.
The source
This is the whole plan. The drawing above is what the compiler produced from it — nothing was drawn by hand.
# A one-bedroom flat authored with the v1.13 placement sugar — no hand-computed
# coordinates for openings or furniture. It exercises, together:
# • `strip` — a row of rooms laid out end to end
# • openings attached to a wall by position (`door|window … on <wall> at <pos>`)
# • a door that opens toward a named room (`swing into`) hinged at a wall end
# • furniture placed relative to a room (`in <room> anchor …`)
# Compiles clean and passes `arch lint`.
