Talk:Task:Publishing API docs

High level library docs

Moved from Documentation wishlist

The current documents are mostly API-oriented. It would be useful to have an overview of all the basic libraries one can (and should) link against (gtk, hildon, osso, gstreamer etc). The doc should explain every library in a few paragraphs:

  • What the library is, what it does, why do you need it
  • What Autoconf/Automake magic is needed to use it
  • Possibly manual compiler switches for compiling and linking
  • Various gotchas, initialization order, other funky stuff
