Documentation Project

  • @Ken is working on a documentation portal, this will help improve our documentation. This will help lower the barrier to writing GTK apps. Even if we solve the distribution problem, we need to solve the documentation problem.
  • This is different than the Flatpak documentation project because Flatpak docs are for how to distribute an already created application.
  • Once it's set up, it'll be like Wordpress where you can give people access without code access. Perhaps using Django CMS.
  • Leads on this project: @Sri, @Ken, @Michael Hall
  • ACTION: We need to start a GitLab project for documentation for GTK apps (tag @Carlos for that)

GitLab

How can we get everyone in GNOME code group to GNOME-Community?
