We are looking for people willing to translate it to English (or other languages). Please contact us on Github if you want to contribute. The process is identical to the later process except you will need to write the documentation in its own language folder, ```./en``` for English, ```./es``` for Spanish, etc. - -## How does it work? - -FreshRSS documentation is generated by [MkDocs](http://www.mkdocs.org/).

First, make sure Python 2.7+ and `pip` are installed on your PC. Working in a virtual environment is better (`virtualenv`, `pew` or similar). - -```bash -$ pip install mkdocs # Install MkDocs software -$ cd ./en # Move to the English language directory -$ mkdocs serve # Have a preview at http://127.0.0.1:8000 -$ # Build the website and push files onto your server -$ mkdocs build --clean -$ rsync -e ssh -P -rvzc --delete ./site/ user@server:/path/to/server/root/en -``` - -The `index.html` file is used to handle the home page and to support internationalised documentation since MkDocs doesn't support it yet. - -We use a custom version of readthedocs theme which include the fonts directly (i.e. instead of using Google servers). Tu use it, you have to copy/paste the theme directory in the language folders. - -```bash -$ cd ./en -$ cp -R ../readthedocs ./ -$ # OR with a symbolic link -$ ln -s ../readthedocs ./ -``` +- [users documentation](users/02_First_steps.md) so you can discover all the power of FreshRSS +- [developers documentation](developers/01_First_steps.md) to guide you in the source code of FreshRSS and to help you if you want to contribute |
