well, basically the docs are just files using markdown syntax, so you can use any markdown renderer for previewing them, e.g. [1] (but beware there are subtle differences in interpreting the markdown syntax between various renderers).
i always edit the files directly, works good enough for me. if there are layout issues either the committer who applies the patch can fix them, or you can submit another patch (a bit inconvenient). stefan [1] http://markdownlivepreview.com/ >-----Original Message----- >From: Nicolas Peltier [mailto:[email protected]] >Sent: Tuesday, December 08, 2015 10:02 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [apachecms] contributing documentation for non commiters > >Hi, > >i’ve tried yesterday to contribute some documentation but i can’t find how >to visualise my changes, i saw the /tools/build/build_site.pl e.g. but >after having installed YAML, XML, Twitter, and i don’t remember other deps, >i failed to install SVN module dependency on my mac (some build issue), >woke up, and told myself there must be an easier way :-) > >So i basically added a mdtext file, and modified another with a link to it, >ideally i’d only need to visualize the changes on those two files.
