"Getting started", tutorial #23

Yes, it would definitely help to make learning Flight more iterative than to have to read the current reference documentation several times. Currently some words are used before they are defined, and when you get to the definition there's a lot of information around there that the user doesn't really have to know when starting out with the Flight framework. It took me about three reads to clearly understand the general concept. We would also appreciate it if the example had comments that explain what the code does. |

Anyone interested in a quick-start Flight application might be interested in using our generator-flight module. It's a Node.js module that you can install and use to generate a boilerplate Flight application for you - all the dependencies, the application structure, the module loading, and the test setup. It's the easiest way to get set up very quickly with a modern, automated workflow. If you're very hesitant to use Node and Node-based tools (but you really should give them a try!), then you can at least get some guidance on a suitable application structure from the generator-flight README. I hope that helps a little while we work on further supporting documentation. |
Thanks. Closing and moving to the website repo: flightjs/flightjs.github.io#2 |
