 # Chapter 2: Jumping into Cocos2d-x
 
-## What is the Director?
-Cocos2d-x uses a shared singleton object called `Director`. The `Director` takes care of initializing OpenGL, Scene transitions, converting coordinates from UIKit to OpenGL and vice versa. 
+## Installation
 
-## How to work with the Director?
-Every Cocos2d-x application has a `Director` context that is created as the application is starting. The `Director` is created in `AppDelegate::applicationDidFinishLaunching()`. As the `Director` is a shared singleton it may be interacted with at almost any stage in your game. 
+[Appendix A - Android with Terminal Installation and Setup]()
 
-**_Example:_** Get the visible screen size
-`cocos2d::Size visibleSize = cocos2d::Director::getInstance()->getVisibleSize();`
+[Appendix B - Android with Eclipse Installation and Setup]()
 
-**_Example:_** Replacing a Scene
-`cocos2d::Director::getInstance()->replaceScene(newScene);`
+[Appendix C - iOS Installation and Setup]()
 
-**_Example:_** Showing Frames-per-second information in lower left corner
-`cocos2d::Director::setDisplayStats(true);`
+[Appendix D - Mac OSX Installation and Setup]()
 
-Please refer to the API documentation for a complete listing of functionality.

-### SpriteFrameCache
+[Appendix G - WP8 Installation and Setup]()
 
-The `SpriteFrameCache` is a singleton that handles the loading of the sprite frames. The first time a sprite is called if it doesn't already exist in the cache it is added.

 # Chapter 8: Event Dispatcher

+## What is the EventDispatch mechanism?
+        
+### Responds To User Events.
+        
+### The Basics:
+            
+#### Event listeners encapsulate your event processing code.
+            
+#### Event dispatcher notifies listeners of user events.
+            
+#### Event objects contain information about the events.
+     
+## 5 types of event listeners.
+         
+### `EventListenerTouch` - responds to touch events
+             
+#### describe what to override.
+         
+### `EventListenerKeyboard` - responds to keyboard events
+             
+#### describe what to override.
+         
+### `EventListenerAcceleration` - responds to accelerometer events    
+             
+#### describe what to override.
+        
+### `EventListenMouse` - responds to mouse events
+             
+#### describe what to override.
+         
+### `EventListenerCustom` - responds to custom events   
+             
+#### describe what to override.
