This is a proposed table of contents for the Maemo 6 developers guide. There is an ongoing related discussion on talk.maemo.org.

[edit] Rationale

The developer guide is set up to answer two main questions for a developer of Maemo:

  1. What do I need to do to be able to write my first Maemo application
  2. What can the Maemo platform do?

The proposed table of contents has two main sections: Getting started & prerequisites, and an in-depth guide to components of the Maemo platform, from a functional point of view.

  1. Setup
    1. Hardware
      1. PC
      2. Mac

      2. Code
        1. C
        2. C++
        3. Python
    3. Getting Src
