In the last weeks many suggestions have been made about a Homey wiki. I don't know if our Athom friends are planning one on their new website....
But if they don't, I'm more than happy to create one and make it available to the community as a sharing hub!

@Stefan what are Athom's plans here?

    No need to wait till the launch of the new site as wiki is an independent package uses it`s own database and installed separately. Probably it would have an address like wiki.athom.com. It is dead simple to install and quite quick. I was also thinking to make one but it would be better to use the athom DNS. And I guess they would like to have some control over it.

    I think our new website will be enough, but you're always free to start these projects! :smiley:

    @emile will it feature a wiki or sorts to share information? 
  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom
    An extensive Support section with a FAQ, tutorials, and I hope eventually instructional videos.

    We need a place for tutorials on jailbreaking Homey ;)
  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom
    Haha, sure, sure. What would you do with a jailbreak? ;)

    @honey using yet another independent system probably also means users have to create new logins (at least to edit content)...

    Maybe just create a wiki on the Athom GitHub page and give permissions to a couple community moderators? Most people here already have a GH account, otherwise creating one is easy and this account can then also be used to report bugs to Athom, etc. Edits will become pull requests that can be reviewed and there's native support for versioning  B)

    To create a nice, themeable and searchable interface, a GitHub repository using https://readthedocs.org is also a great option. This could be linked to wiki.athom.com or docs.athom.com for example. I've seen this being used by the Microsoft ASP.NET team (docs.asp.net) in a really great way... The documentation of the project is also very detailed: https://docs.readthedocs.org/ o:)

    I would at least wait until Athom releases the new site. It would be a shame if we get another place to look for info. I prefer to have everything on the Athom umbrella.
    Maybe @Emile can give an estimation on the go live of the site?
