All available syntax 'cheat sheet'...where can I find one? #210

Not a bad thing to have.

A good place to start for now is the introduction website; from there you can check out the docs.

daveyarwood commented 8 years ago

This is a great idea. A webpage with concise examples, something along the lines of the Emmet cheat sheet, would be ideal. We'll be happy to host it on alda.io, should anyone want to take a crack at this.

I'll eventually get to this myself if no one else does it first, but I'm pretty busy these days :)

Sweet.... Something for me to do! When contributing for Intel's 'Android Hub'...they prefer things to be submitted using markdown. Does that work for you? By the time I'm done writing...I wont need a cheat sheet anymore but, that's really my secret plan....shhhhhh... don't tell ok?

daveyarwood commented 8 years ago

I don't have a preference at this point. If you're able to work with the HTML in the alda.io repo and submit pull requests, that would be the best thing, but submitting Markdown documents would be fine too, at least as a starting point until we have a system in place for publishing content to alda.io.

10-4 ;)

Also don't forget about the new features added. Once this is finalized, maybe we could put it in ddg, like this one. :smile:

I'm working on setting up a basic Jekyll site -- you can see what I've got so far at http://alda.io.

PRs welcome! I have a (broken) "Cheat Sheet" link in the header that will go to http://alda.io/cheat-sheet. Creating the cheat sheet is now just a matter of putting a file called cheat-sheet.md in the root path of the repo. See about.md for comparison.

Damn that's really nice theme! Love the 404 page! :+1:

daveyarwood commented 8 years ago

Yeah, I'm diggin it! I may have someone who's handy with CSS style it up a bit at some point and make it more like something uniquely "ours." I think we'll keep the glitchy 404 page though, because it's pretty awesome. :smile:
