Dear Community,
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/install/
'''Documentation Collaboration'''
It would be great if the Django student community, could edit the online
documentation collaboratively.
Through source control?
'''Copy Code Button'''
It would save a lot of time, if Django students, could click a Copy Code
Button,
instead of having to highlight and copy.
'''Tiny Improvement'''
On the page listed above, change:
{{{
python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print
get_python_lib()"
}}}
to:
{{{
cd `python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print
get_python_lib()"`
}}}
All this saves time.
The current steps:
1. Highlight code.
2. Copy text.
3. Fire up terminal.
4. Paste text.
5. Execute code.
6. Type cd <directory>
Steps after optimisation:
1. Click copy button.
2. Fire up terminal.
3. Paste text.
4. Execute code.
If it were possible to trust web page code, the quality plateau, would be:
1. Click execute button (to execute steps 1-4).
If the inefficiency is 20 seconds, and 100,000 people go through these
hoops,
The total time wasted is ~23 days.
Best Wishes,
Quark.
