Is There a User Guide?

Get Started
#1

Ok, dumb question maybe, but is there a user guide for Sailfish OS? Something I can read before deciding to dive in?

#2

There is the old Jolla user guide: https://jolla.com/guide/en/index.html
That is Sailfish OS 1.x (weā€™re at 3.x now) so some things are a bit different these days. It has the basic ideas though.
I couldnā€™t find anything else for now.

Thanks very much, Iā€™ll go and check those out.

I know itā€™s not exactly what you asked for, but you could also get an idea by watching some feature videos. Here are a couple (both a bit old now, but they still give an idea). Youā€™ll find a bunch more videos on both the official Jolla and Leszekā€™s YouTube accounts.

Linking to a collection of useful links, including the ā€˜user guideā€™ ones.

ā€“edit
and if we still had the power Iā€™d close this answered :wink:

@david.giffin you can do this, I think. I have seen this in other Discourse forums.

No idea how to do that, sorry!

It is explained here: https://www.discourse.org/plugins/solved.html
But maybe the plugin is not enabled? If so, it should definitely be given that most will come from together.jolla.com/AskBot.

I asked here: Is the Solved plugin enabled (for marking replies as solutions and topics as solved)?

#11

I donā€™t see the ā€œSolvedā€ button, so an guessing itā€™s not enabled.

#12

It is enabled now!
