I assume that this test is to check software functionality, and that the user manual (help pages/whatever) will be developed in response to user questions and comments, and we will write it as we fumble along so that later users will have less need for fumbling.
Topic on Help talk:Extension:CollaborationKit/Flow
Are you referring to CollaborationKit or to Flow? As far as CollaborationKit goes, the goal here is to figure out where the pain points are and make adjustments accordingly, whether to the code itself or to the documentation. Feedback is thus very useful.
(As far as Flow goes, I think that it's used by default for talk pages on this wiki, for better or for worse.)
Never used flow before and didn't know what it was. That clears up that set of questions. I will just live with flow as it is here, and basically irrelevant. A bit troublesome having to learn two new systems in parallel though.
I was having trouble getting CollaborationKit to do what I wanted, though to some extent hindered by not knowing what I wanted. Partly because it is not very clear what is possible, and also because there are not many hints/suggestions etc. I have looked at a few existing projects on a similar format and am getting some ideas of what is possible, but have no idea of how to go about it yet. I will get back to playing around later as it is now getting late and I have a busy offline day tomorrow.
That is a good point. It is pretty open ended, with not so much direction to help you construct a project. I will make a note to improve on this in the future.
