Revision history [back]

As a developer I use StackOverflow.com a lot and think it is an invaluable resource to quickly find best practices and a great way to organize huge amounts of experience. I think there is a need for a place like this for Sailfish development related questions.

The mailing list and IRC are nice for communicating with other developers, but experience shared in those places is easily drowned and quite "volatile". The documentation resources available at sailfishos.org, qt-project.org etcetera are in general good, but it takes more to add information there (the wiki at sailfishos.org doesn't even seem to be open for more than a few users).

What are the options then? A new Askbot instance? Ask Sailfish questions at StackOverflow? Improve the Qt wiki? Opening up the Sailfish wiki?
