Moreover, we should reconsider the old question what to do with http://isabelle.in.tum.de/overview.html

Further notes on this: the general question is how to ease the first encounter with Isbaelle after download.

People who have tested the integrated applications may already have noticed that there is now the "Documentation" panel wide open by default. This gives access to our long list of manuals, also a few quick-start examples. People need to spend a few minutes looking around to figure this out.

I have recently added a new "jedit" manual for Isabelle/jEdit, but there is still relatively little text, apart from the material from the old README. Maybe I will write a bit more when I am on vacation in the second half of October.


This perspective can somehow be taken into account when updating the website. E.g. the old preview by Larry shows how to download, install, run Isabelle, open a theory file, but this is now self-explanatory.

There could be some nice videos instead, but I still don't know how to produce them.
