Overview

At this point in time, there are no comprehensive User Guides for OpenPetra users available.

Current Options

Goals of OpenPetra User Guides

Content

  • Should provide thorough instructions and answers on how to use OpenPetra effectively.

Portable

  • User Guides should be viewable on any operating system. This goal could be reached by providing the User Guides in PDF format.


Authoring of User Guides

Using Sphinx

The plan is to write the content of the User Guides with Sphinx, store them in Github, and publish them at https://docs.openpetra.org/. Sphinx also allows to produce PDF files.

See https://docs.openpetra.org/contributions/index.html for more details!

Possible Alternative: FLOSS Manuals
