Hi Andrew, good point! That's without doubt another new point to bring to :
- Royale-docs: We can follow most of the documentation available here [1] - Examples: In this case I don't see a Tour app since the use cases are very direct and can be exposed in few examples. Greg already provide 3 examples that shows all the things currently developed here [2]. I think we'll need to do soon a blog example covering Crux too that could be one of those or a new one. For example TODO List example would be a good one to apply Crux ;) [1] https://swizframework.jira.com/wiki/spaces/SWIZ/overview [2] https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/tree/feature/Crux/examples/crux So many work there too to make it all avaialble to Apache Royale users as easy as possible ;) El jue., 4 jul. 2019 a las 18:46, Andrew Wetmore (<cottag...@gmail.com>) escribió: > This is great. > > However, even with the original Swiz I found the documentation quite thin > and that it made a lot of assumptions about what a general developer might > know and need to know.
