Dear mifos,
I have dig into details of mifos preconfiguration I saw that there are much
information related to developer setup as well as any important tips on how
to build mifos from source. but however it is still hard for the beginner.
I have taken a look a few video files from youbute related mifos workspace
2.0 setup, it is really good for me.
so what I would suggest I would mifos team create some video especially pre
configure before starting develop and for the pain point of mifos developer
who just starting.
E.g. Video of pre-configuration environment on developer machine before
checkout source code and after checkout how to place source to a right place
for team development.
So after they can build success then they would really can implement and
build their tasks from a good condition of mifos.
Thanks.
