Looking for Sailfish/Nemo/Mer system documentation (I am lost)

I would like to get started with some Sailfish development. I installed the latest SDK and I am very familiar with Qt Creator and the Qt library. Didn't use much Qt Quick 2 yet though.

I managed running the wizards default Sailfish QML app on the emulator and on the device.

So, after installing the SDK, I found some Sailfish Silica reference documentation which is a nice start for the UI.

What I am desperately missing is documentation on the system environment: What are the libraries / services available and where is their documentation. I am in particular looking for the alarm/timer infrastructure, audio, location, camera, ...

As a first tutorial project, I want to recreate the clock app with some extensions (like showing how much time has passed since a countdown has elapsed which I am missing a lot in the stock app).
