The getting started page is confusing to me. Is it getting started developing apps or getting started contributing to the framework?
That’s two very different things and two different setup paths. I also agree with Piotr that we need more than one set of instructions. Ultimately, I’d like to split up the instruction sets for contributing to the different pieces. Someone contributing to the framework should not need to build the compiler. etc. > On Nov 21, 2017, at 10:32 PM, Piotr Zarzycki <piotrzarzyck...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Hi Carlos, > > Although I'm a HUGE fun of Maven and my setup wasn't change since last 2 > years for this project, we should have on that section solid description > how to build Royale by ant. - Why ?
