Dramatically simplified the welcome screen to show only essential info:
- Quick Start (3 commands)
- Track Progress (2 commands)
- Community (1 command)
Removed redundant commands:
- leaderboard -> merged into community
- olympics -> merged into community
These backend-dependent features are consolidated into a single
community command that will handle all social features when the
backend is ready.
Changes:
- Simplified welcome screen (10 lines vs 40+ lines)
- Moved leaderboard.py and olympics.py to _archived/
- Updated all tests (45 passing)
- Cleaner --help output
- Updated archived README

Students can run demos directly with Python, and developers can
run jupyter-book directly. The CLI wrappers don't add value.
Changes:
- Move demo.py and book.py to _archived/
- Remove from main.py command registry
- Remove from __init__.py imports
- Update test expectations (47 tests passing)
- Update archived README with removal rationale

Changed community join from anonymous UUID-based to GitHub-authenticated
profile creation with minimal CLI questions and web completion.
Changes:
- Ask only 3 questions: GitHub username (required), country, institution
- GitHub username is the authentication anchor (no more anonymous UUIDs)
- Auto-detect country when possible
- Open browser to tinytorch.ai/community/join with pre-filled params
- Store minimal profile locally (.tinytorch/community.json)
- Full profile completion happens on website (OAuth, bio, social links)
- Updated command description to be clearer
Benefits:
- Faster CLI experience (3 questions max vs 5+)
- GitHub username = single source of truth
- Better UX for complex forms (website has rich UI)
- OAuth authentication built-in
- Profile sync possible via API later
Local storage format:
{
"github_username": "studentX",
"joined_at": "2025-11-29T...",
"country": "USA",
"institution": "MIT",
"profile_url": "https://tinytorch.ai/community/studentX",

Changed import from `.src` to `..src` since SrcCommand is in
tito/commands/src.py not tito/commands/module/src.py
This fixes the "No module named 'tito.commands.module.src'" error
when running `tito module complete`.

The checkpoint command tracked 21 technical capability checkpoints, but
this overlapped significantly with the milestones system which provides
a more engaging, narrative-driven progress tracking experience.
Changes:
- Removed checkpoint command and test files
- Updated milestone.py to remove checkpoint dependencies
- Removed checkpoint integration from export.py, src.py, leaderboard.py
- Updated CLI help text to reference milestones instead
- Updated test suite (49/49 tests passing)
- Archived checkpoint.py for reference
Rationale:
- Milestones is more engaging (historical ML achievements)
- Module status already shows granular progress
- Reduces duplication and confusion
- Single clear progress tracking system

- Included TinyML movement origin story in conversational, italic style
- Emphasized "engineer" as the core philosophy
- Added Lego blocks analogy for building from scratch

Fixes:
- module complete: Update paths to use src/ for source files
- module complete: Fix export call to use new SourceCommand API
- milestone run: Remove nonexistent progress_tracker dependency
- milestone run: Use progress.json directly for prerequisite checking
Both commands now work correctly with new directory structure
Major directory restructure to support both developer and learner workflows:
Structure Changes:
- NEW: src/ directory for Python source files (version controlled)
- Files renamed: tensor.py → 01_tensor.py (matches directory naming)
- All 20 modules moved from modules/ to src/
- CHANGED: modules/ now holds generated notebooks (gitignored)
- Generated from src/*.py using jupytext
- Learners work in notebooks, developers work in Python source
- UNCHANGED: tinytorch/ package (still auto-generated from notebooks)
Workflow: src/*.py → modules/*.ipynb → tinytorch/*.py
Command Updates:
- Updated export command to read from src/ and generate to modules/
- Export flow: discovers modules in src/, converts to notebooks in modules/, exports to tinytorch/
- All 20 modules tested and working
Configuration:
- Updated .gitignore to ignore modules/ directory
- Updated README.md with new three-layer architecture explanation
- Updated export.py source mappings and paths
Benefits:
- Clean separation: developers edit Python, learners use notebooks
- Better version control: only Python source committed, notebooks generated
- Flexible learning: can work in notebooks OR Python source
- Maintains backward compatibility: tinytorch package unchanged
Tested:
- Single module export: tito export 01_tensor ✅
- All modules export: tito export --all ✅
- Package imports: from tinytorch.core.tensor import Tensor ✅
- 20/20 modules successfully converted and exported
- Single source of truth in milestone_tracker.py
- Zero code duplication across codebase
- Clean API: check_module_export(module_name, console)
- Gamified learning experience through ML history
- Progressive unlocking of 5 major milestones
- Comprehensive documentation for students and developers
- Integration with module workflow and CLI commands
New milestone 05 demo that shows students the model learning to "talk":
- Live dashboard with epoch-by-epoch response progression
- Systems stats panel (tokens/sec, batch time, memory)
- 3 test prompts with full history displayed
- Smaller model (110K params) for ~2 minute training time

The auto-protection feature was setting core tinytorch files to read-only
after each export, which caused permission errors on subsequent exports.
Students who want file protection can run 'tito protect --enable' manually.

The itemize environment parameters [leftmargin=*, itemsep=1pt, parsep=0pt]
were appearing as visible text in the PDF because the enumitem package
wasn't loaded. This fix adds \usepackage{enumitem} to the preamble.
All itemized lists now format correctly with proper spacing and margins.

All modules now pass their inline tests.
Re-exported all modules after restructuring:
- Updated _modidx.py with new module locations
- Removed outdated autogeneration headers
- Updated all core modules (tensor, autograd, layers, etc.)
- Updated optimization modules (quantization, compression, etc.)
- Updated TITO commands for new structure
Changes include:

- Removed tito/commands/submit.py (moved to module workflow)
- Updated tito/main.py with cleaner command structure
- Removed module workflow commands (start/complete/resume)
- Updated __init__.py exports for CommunityCommand
- Updated _modidx.py with new module exports
Result: Cleaner CLI focused on essential daily workflows and
clear distinction between casual sharing vs formal competition.
Removed commands:
- tito module (start/complete/resume) - students just open files
- tito notebooks - redundant with export
Students now have a simpler workflow
Issue: Had two conflicting submit commands:
- tito submit (competition submission - top level)
- tito community submit (social sharing - hierarchical)
Solution:
- Renamed 'tito community submit' to 'tito community share'
- Kept 'submit' as an alias for backward compatibility
- Updated all help text and documentation references
- Changed function name from _submit_results to _share_results
Clear separation now:
- tito community share = Social progress sharing (Modules 1-19)
- tito submit = Competition submission (Module 20)
No more confusion between the two workflows
New submit command:
- Validates TinyMLPerf competition submissions from Module 20
- Performs sanity checks on speedup, compression, and accuracy
- Displays MLPerf-style scorecard with normalized metrics
- Collects GitHub repo for verification
- Confirms honor code agreement
- Generates submission_final.json ready for upload
Rename leaderboard to community:
- Renamed LeaderboardCommand to CommunityCommand
- Changed command name from 'leaderboard' to 'community'
- Updated all help text and documentation
- More inclusive naming that emphasizes collaboration over competition
- Maintains all existing functionality (join, submit, view, profile, etc.)
CLI registration:
- Added CommunityCommand and SubmitCommand to command registry
- Updated main.py help text and command list
- Updated __init__.py exports
Student workflow now complete:
1. Modules 1-19: Learn and build
2. Optional: tito community join/submit (share progress)
3. Module 20: Generate submission.json
4. tito submit submission.json (validate and finalize)
5. Upload to instructor/platform
