Prepare a "Getting started" documentation for new developers #80

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Prepare a getting started documentation for developers on the wiki section of 
this website.

Good example of what's needed:

Somebody with some Java experience should be able to download and install 
Eclipse and the necessary plugins if he does not has them already. IMO it is 
better to outline projects general design and existing components. Without it, 
it can be easy to get lost in all the classes and packages.

Sure I agree with you that the outline is required but don't dismiss the simple 
getting started instructions.
Not everyone needing access to the latest version is/will be a developer. Just 
moments ago I instructed Mushin on IRC how to get eclipse, checkout our project 
and run it. He needs it to test the 'bleeding edge' version. I see value in 
this.

I'll be installing it again on my laptop later so I can write it up 
step-by-step if you like.

Thanks atb001.  I added it to the wiki (with some tweaks).  I changed the URL 
for the page that contains the Java download because it looks like java.com 
only lets you download the JRE?  Since Eclipse uses it's own Java compiler, you 
can still compile programs with only the JRE, but there are some development 
tasks that you can only do with a JDK, so I think that it's better to download 
that instead.  Tell mulander thanks too!
