+================
+ Built-in Types
+================
+
+This document serves as a reference for many of the built-in types
+which are available when programming in the IDE.  Programmers using
+the :ref:`command-line tools <unix-toolchain>` will have access to
+these types as long as they have imported `wirish.h
+<https://github.com/leaflabs/libmaple/blob/master/wirish/wirish.h>`_;
+several are defined in in `libmaple_types.h
+<https://github.com/leaflabs/libmaple/blob/master/libmaple/libmaple_types.h>`_.

+Integral types
+--------------
+
+.. cpp:type:: char
+
+   8-bit integer value.
+
+.. cpp:type:: short
+
+   16-bit integer value.
+
+.. cpp:type:: int
+
+   32-bit integer value.
+
+.. cpp:type:: long
+
+   32-bit integer value.
+
+.. cpp:type:: long long
+
+   64-bit integer value.
+
+.. cpp:type:: int8
+
+   8-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``signed char``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: uint8
+
+   8-bit unsigned integer value.  Synonym for ``unsigned char``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: byte
+
+   8-bit unsigned integer value.  Synonym for ``unsigned char``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: int16
+
+   16-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``short``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: uint16
+
+   16-bit unsigned integer value.  Synonym for ``unsigned short``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: int32
+
+   32-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``int``.
+
+.. cpp:type:: uint32
+
+   Unsigned 32-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``unsigned int``
+
+.. cpp:type:: int64
+
+   64-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``long long``
+
+.. cpp:type:: uint64
+
+   Unsigned 64-bit integer value.  Synonym for ``unsigned long long``.
+
+Floating-Point Types
+--------------------
+
+.. cpp:type:: float
+
+   32-bit, IEEE-754 single-precision floating-point type.
+
+.. cpp:type:: double
+
+   64-bit, IEEE-754 double-precision floating-point type.
+
+Miscellaneous Types
+-------------------
+
+.. cpp:type:: voidFuncPtr
+
+   Pointer to a function that takes no arguments and returns nothing, i.e. ::
+
+       typedef void (*voidFuncPtr)(void);
+
+.. cpp:type:: bool
+
+   Boolean type.
+
+Other
+-----
+
+.. cpp:type:: void
+
+   Not really a type. To be honest with you, this only exists here to
+   silence warnings from our documentation build system.
