Overview

The messages system is a system for Slab to notify developers of issues or suggestions on aspects of the API. Functions or options may be deprecated or Slab may offer an alternative usage. The system is designed to notify the user only once to prevent any repeated output to the console if enabled. This system can be enabled at startup and the developer will have the ability to gather the messages to be displayed in a control if desired.
