Wiki for devs #158

Open hungl6844 opened 3 years ago

hungl6844 commented 3 years ago

I know most people here can easily understand how snakeware works, and contribute to the project. I, on the other hand, couldn't understand anything when I first tried contributing, and I still don't understand a few things. So, I think, it would be a good idea to write a wiki. Of course, I'm prepared to write it myself, but I'll need help from some of the contributors who actually know what they're doing. Most of this will be specific to snakeware, like how apps are written, but I also would like to include some explanations of things like buildroot and busybox.

You need to read config files and documentation to buildroot

You need to read config files and documentation to buildroot

I know how buildroot works, to an extent, and busybox docs should be readily available, but I think that the way apps are written is unique to snakeware. This makes it difficult for people who aren't proficient enough in python/buildroot to figure out how to write one to contribute. So I will begin writing a wiki in my fork, but I will need help.
