Tutorials and Guides for developers

[glasgowm148]

Ergo has lots of great dense resources and explanations - but needs people to make these understandable to people.

Tutorials are learning-oriented lessons that take the reader by the hand through a series of steps to complete a project.

The most important part of the documentation, and rarely done well.

What matters?

• Learn by doing.
• Getting Started
• Inspiring Confidence
• Repeatability
• Immediate sense of achievement
• Concreteness, not abstraction
• Minimum necessary explanation
• No distractions

How-To Guides are problem-oriented guides that take the user through a series of steps to achieve a common problem.

What matters?

• A series of steps
• A focus on the goal
• Addressing a specific question
• A little flexibility
• Practical usability
• Good naming

Bounties of upto 500 SigUSD can be awarded based on merit. Equally, submissions can be rejected if they're not suitable.

Examples will be added soon, please see this site in the meantime.

Hi Glasgow, I'd like to do a complete tutorial on using the Yoroi connector in two to three weeks as it still seems a bit a mystery for everyone in the community.
