Installation (administration) documentation should be improved #195

dotZoki commented 3 years ago

There is no installation documentation/instructions and for somebody with no Python background it is hard to know how to install it.

We've just merged a few updates to the first sections of the CONTRIBUTING.md file under "Preparing your Development Environment"

Is that sufficient for you to get the repo clone and the tests passing?

dotZoki commented 3 years ago

Thank you for replying. It is somewhat useful. I did managed to set it up and run it.

I'm referring more to user manual, not development. How to install it, configure it and run it.

For support with installing Sygnal we recommend visiting the Synapse Admins room at #synapse:matrix.org , or the Sygnal room at #sygnal:matrix.org .

I am seeing too many times that when people ask for 'documentation' on how to configure something, they are instead sent to some matrix chat rooms that are not indexed by google or viewable without "logging in" somewhere. Many people running their own servers do so precisely not to login to public servers in the first place.
