Hi, My name is Trent.
I like spreadsheets. I also like databases, but I have a personal
interest
in spreadsheets. I'd really like to work on Calc documentation. I have
a
bachelors in mathematics, and a community college CIS certificate in
computer programming. I also have about three years of experience
working
with programming long ago. In addition, I have experience writing in
the
humanities, social science, and business.
Where should I start familiarizing myself with LibreOffice
documentation
standards and tools? Is there a list of low hanging fruit needing
documentation?
Hi and welcome.
Regarding Calc, I am sure Jorge RodrÃguez will get back to you with more
details, but I want to take the opportunity to get you on a fast track
for contributing.
The user guide for Calc 6.x is in planning stages. To participate,
please register at ODFAuthors: https://www.odfauthors.org/ Instructions
are under "How you can help at ODFAuthors".
Jorge has filled out a wiki page on all the new stuff that might go into
the guide:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development/Calc/6.x
Another way to contribute is to write help pages, which are much more
terse than the content in user guides:
https://documentation.libreoffice.org/en/join-community/update-help-contents/
You can start with the easy way, sending the help content to Olivier
Hallot as an .odt document. Later you might get into git and submitting
patches. In the long run we want to do away with the awkward git
process, though.
Regards,
Ilmari
