http://blog.qt.nokia.com/2011/06/15/enhanced-qt-documentation-going-live-on-qt-developer-network/For decades Qt developers all over the world have been praising the quality of our documentation.
The online versionis by far the most popular of our websites, visited by hundreds ofthousands developers every month. The content is fantastic and we wantto take it even further by carefully adding a bouquet of modern webfeatures.
Up until now, our documentation team published the content for usersto read and there were no easy options to add additional information.With the
Qt Developer Networkwe now have a collection of useful features at our disposal ready toenhance the current online documentation. Some features are available toregistered users only, others don’t require a sign-up.
So, while we have added some features to our docs content as part ofputting it on Qt Developer Network, no changes are being made to thedocumentation itself. Also, the style of documentation that Qtdevelopers know today will remain on
doc.qt.nokia.com for many months to come.
Documentation NotesThe most exciting
new feature we are adding for Docs on Qt DeveloperNetwork is the possibility to comment on each and every page. Everyregistered DevNet user now has the option to add extra content to thedocumentation, be it “informative”, “best practice” or a “cool hack”. Weapply a rating and reporting system to ensure the quality and validityof these notes.
By opening up this new channel to our users, we want to grow aQt-centric knowledge base connected to our documentation and also helpyour feedback and corrections reach the team writing our documentationin a more direct manner.
DocmarksAll registered DevNet users can now bookmark classes directly on thesite and their references are shown in the personal sidebar forconvenient access. We believe that this feature will
make it easy fordevelopers to access the documentation for classes they work with mostfrequently without a lot of typing.
SearchWith the new release of Docs on the Qt Developer Network, we alsomake an improved search engine available to Qt developers. All classesare accessible as auto-suggestions taking users to the right page in asingle click.
In addition, the documentation pages are also included in thesite-wide search which returns all results for a query sorted by contenttype.
Site-Wide FeaturesLike all other content on the site, each documentation page can betagged and rated by registered users. The tagging functionality isparticularly important for content discovery and we already make use ofit for auto-suggesting related content.
Every activity on the Qt Developer Network is rewarded with pointswhich are tied to a series of ranks. With this release, we extend thesystem to contributions to the documentation as well.
Simple ModeFor users wanting a purer version of the documentation on the QtDeveloper Network, we have implemented an option we call “Simple Mode”.Once this is enabled, the tagging and rating box as well as theDocumentation Notes will be hidden.
Currently, this functionality is only available to users logged in but will be extended to all visitors soon.
More InformationIf you want to learn more, take a look at a more detailed article on
the blog over at the Qt Developer Network or read about the inner workings and changes under the hood that made all of this possible
in Morten’s blog on Qt Labs.
