+# Notes while working on Kivy
+
+## Tutorial Improvements:
+- [Adding Ball Animation](https://kivy.org/docs/tutorials/pong.html#adding-ball-animation)
+    - Add in placeholder variable to describe the random direction of the ball.
+
+## Kivy File
+- Properties need to be declared at the top of a section in Kv.
+- Nothing in the Kv language specification on the order of properties / sections.
+
+## Kivy language
+- [Documentation for Kv language](https://kivy.org/docs/guide/lang.html)
+- Documentation on language does not have an explicit section on adding comments.
+- Nice to have tips for syntax-highlighting inside Kv files for PyCharm.
