The idea of online tutorials for newbie contributors to Koha was brought up at the General IRC Meeting, 5 August 2009. This page will serve as an outline of what is needed and in the future will house links to tutorials.
Possible Topics
- Git & Koha Git usage seems to be it
- A summary of our coding guidelines
- How to navigate Koha's codebase including file locations
- Coding database updates
Possible Instructors/Facilitators
- Galen Charlton
- D Ruth Bavousett
Possible Software Options
- Lernid - uses IRC so might be OK anyway, but can run from Live CD and is Pygtk so might be fairly easy to port to Windows if anyone really wants to?
- Muji - under development.
- DimDim - requires Flash plugin and doesn't seem to work with Gnash
- WebHuddle
- Open Source Screencasting
- FOSS Screencast Tools? - http://recordmydesktop.sourceforge.net/ was the popular suggestion by readers of Software Cooperative News.
