However I hope you don't mind me saying that I think using GitHub, GitLab or similar platforms have many advantages. It is not just because I haven't been able to login into the ATOMS nor wiki websites for last two month (reported here <https://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15988> and you have been already bothered enough for that), but the fact that: - GitHub rendering is much nicer and mobile friendly - a great majority of developers have GiHub or GitLab accounts - They are made for collaboration and code development - GitHub renders its own flavors of MarkDown and AsciiDoc yanndebray wrote > This way, it is quite easy for anyone to contribute, without any Git > skills > necessary, I hope you don't find me opposing to this statement as being rude, but GitHub is quit user friendly. You don't have to push to your computer, just open any file and edit it right away and send pull requests. GitLab also has similar features. In fact I'm in favor of moving the entire project to GitHub as I have proposed here <https://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16018> . yanndebray wrote > Next step could be a tutorial listed in the *Application development* > category: > https://www.scilab.org/tutorials?field_tutorials_tid=13 Some of those code is already in the above repository, the documentation yet to be added though. However those are pretty advanced examples and I'm not even sure if I'm competent to understand them myself. Having some of your expertise would be very valuable. yanndebray wrote > And eventually for content that is mature could be summarized on a > dedicated > page such as this one: > https://www.scilab.org/software/scilab/app-development > (could also use a revamp) of course when matured enough all these could be pulled back to the official Scilab documentation. -- Sent from: http://mailinglists.scilab.org/Scilab-users-Mailing-Lists-Archives-f2602246.html _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@lists.scilab.org http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
