Document: User Manual, Website and Wiki

FreedomBox needs better documentation for users and contributors.

If you wish to contribute to the FreedomBox wiki, you can create a account and start editing. There is a plan to export the wiki pages as the official FreedomBox manual. For contributing to website and documentation please start a discussion on the FreedomBox mailing list.

Quality Assurance

  • FreedomBox already runs on many platforms and it is not possible for developers to test all possible platforms. If you have one of the supported hardware you can help with testing FreedomBox on the platform.

  • When an application is made available on FreedomBox, not all of its functionality is tested in the real world by developer doing the work. Deploying the application and testing it will help ensure high quality applications in FreedomBox.

See the quality assurance page for a basic list of test cases to check for and information on reporting bugs.

Translate

  • Plinth web interface for FreedomBox

  • FreedomBox documentation

  • FreedomBox website and wiki

  • Individual applications that FreedomBox exposes to users such as ownCloud, JWChat etc.

If you wish to see FreedomBox available for one of your languages, please start a discussion on the FreedomBox discuss mailing list.
