[Vm-beginners] Why Are Only Some Sources Generated

[Sean P. DeNigris]

I thought from reading old Squeak books that the VM started life as
all-Slang, and then that was turned into C to be compiled into the VM. But
after building a Pharo VM per the instructions on GitHub, it occured to me
that there seems to be a lot of C source code already present before the
generation step. Is that correct? If so, was there ever a time when most or
all of the C code was generated? And why did it change?

Thanks.
