Live coding uses a commit-per-change workflow: every edit becomes a git commit that gets reloaded, driven by a small script that stitches files into a commit sequence instead of manual checkouts. It runs compiled examples automatically (no manual compile) and mostly works, but larger-than-minimal commits and losing track of the next change cause confusion. The demo uses a hacked repo plus a macro to switch commits; suggested improvement is editor integration (e.g. VS Code highlight of git show).
