Re: Developer guide

 

Hey Sergey,

It was me who added the info icon stuff 😉

I think before we release something out into the wild we should address some of the comments that are already on the guide. 

I do think comments directly on the guide would be better than bug reports. It may be difficult to associate those with the text in question. 

Best Regards,
Daniel Foré

But I think we've reached the point where we, as devs who already know the processes, make too much assumptions about what new devs need. In other words, the guide needs user testing.
