+# INAV JavaScript Transpiler - Technical Overview
+
+## Overview
+
+The INAV JavaScript Transpiler is a bidirectional JavaScript ↔ INAV Logic Conditions system that allows users to write flight controller logic in JavaScript instead of raw logic condition commands.
+
+**System Components:**
+- **Transpiler**: JavaScript → INAV Logic Conditions
+- **Decompiler**: INAV Logic Conditions → JavaScript
+- **Semantic Analysis**: Full validation and error checking
+- **Parser**: Production-grade using Acorn
+- **Code Generation**: Optimized INAV CLI commands
+- **Integration**: Monaco Editor with IntelliSense
+
+## Architecture

+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Transpilation
+
+**Input JavaScript:**
+```javascript
+
+if (inav.flight.homeDistance > 100) {
+  inav.override.vtx.power = 3;
+}
+
+```
+
+**Output INAV Commands:**
+```
+logic 0 1 -1 2 2 1 0 100 0
+logic 1 1 0 27 0 0 0 3 0
+```
+
+### Example 2: Decompilation
+
+**Input INAV Commands:**
+```
+logic 0 1 -1 2 2 5 0 350 0
+logic 1 1 0 25 0 0 0 50 0
+```
+
+**Output JavaScript:**
+```javascript
+
+if (inav.flight.cellVoltage < 350) {
+  inav.override.throttleScale = 50;
+}
+
+```
+
+### Example 3: Full Round-Trip
+
+**Original Code:**
+```javascript
+on.arm({ delay: 1 }, () => {
+  inav.gvar[0] = inav.flight.yaw;
+});
+
+if (inav.flight.homeDistance > 500) {
+  inav.override.vtx.power = 4;
+  inav.override.throttleScale = 75;
+}
+
+```
+
+**Transpiled → Saved to FC → Loaded from FC:**
+```javascript
+// INAV Logic Conditions - Decompiled to JavaScript
+// Note: Comments, variable names, and some structure may be lost
+
+
+on.arm({ delay: 1 }, () => {
+  inav.gvar[0] = inav.flight.yaw;
+});
+
+if (inav.flight.homeDistance > 500) {
+  inav.override.vtx.power = 4;
+  inav.override.throttleScale = 75;
+}
+
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+### Transpiler
+
+1. **Subset of JavaScript**: Only supports INAV-specific syntax
+2. **No complex expressions**: Nested function calls not supported
+3. **Limited control flow**: Only if/else supported, no loops or complex functions
+
+### Decompiler
+
+1. **Lossy conversion**: Comments and variable names lost
+2. **Structure changes**: Optimizations may alter original code
+3. **Complex conditions**: May not perfectly reconstruct nested logic
+4. **LC references**: References between logic conditions flagged for review
+
+## Testing
+
+### Running Tests
+
+```bash
+npm test parser.test.js
+npm test analyzer.test.js
+npm test decompiler.test.js
+npm test integration.test.js
+```
+
+### Test Coverage
+
+- Parser: Empty input, syntax errors, edge cases
+- Analyzer: Validation, dead code, conflicts, ranges
+- Transpiler: Full pipeline, error handling
+- Decompiler: All operations, grouping, warnings
+- Integration: Monaco editor, UI events, MSP communication
