Shoes is the library on which Hackety Hack is built.

A small history lesson

A long time ago, there was no such thing as Shoes. There was only Hackety Hack. But, because Hackety Hack needed to work on all three major platforms, _why decided to pull out all of the platform dependant things and create Shoes out of it. Thus, Shoes was born, with Hackety Hack being its champion project. Now, Shoes lives a life separate from Hackety, and many people are using Shoes to build cool things. Hackety is still the largest Shoes program ever written (to my knowledge, anyway.)

Shoes within Hackety

Since Hackety is a Shoes application, you can write any valid Shoes app from within Hackety itself. Hackety also adds several additional libraries to make programming even easier.
