Contributing

Simply edit rosetta-stone.md and send a pull request. Please note:

• Add references to official documentation, preferably from the distributor, since this will match the version distributed with the OS. If you can't find this, use a reference from the upstream Open Source project.

• If there are two ways doing something, add the one the distributor uses in their own documentation

Building

You don't need to build to contribute, but if you want to build the HTML and see what your changes look like yourself:

1. Install node.js

2. Install gulp

   sudo npm install -g gulp

3. Clone the repo:

   git clone [email protected]:mikemaccana/rosetta-stone.git

4. Edit rosettastone.md

5. Run gulp, and visit http://localhost:7777
