Thank you.
And yes, I meant to use MB or something to print the HelloWorld
As far as I could see in SWS or JS-Extension-code, there's tons of stuff to do, that I don't understand as I can't get my head around the pure basics.
The more I can get into that, I'll try to write an introduction for new-coders to come up with at least a basic-plugin and documenting potential missteps and stumbling stones and how to set up XCode/VS to make it work at all.
For more complex stuff, like the action/function-register-management in SWS which is quite abstracted away to make stuff convenient, one needs to have more experience in C++ anyway, I guess.
