Humdinger 9e15c9f153 Adding the Quick Tour * Add a link to the Quick Tour to the desktop. * Remove the Welcome page from desktop. We don't want to clutter the user's desktop more than necessary. As "Home" page of WebPositive, it's still very visible. * Mention the Quick Tour in the Welcome package description. * Add a "quicktour" script similar to the welcome/userguide that opens the online version if it's not installed locally. * Add icons to the userguide and quicktour scripts. Fixes #14706. * Add bookmark and launcher for the Quick Tour. Adjust the AddFileDataAttributeRule to create its temporary file in the "common" architecture, the file is not architecture specific. Add a rule PrepareScriptWithIcon in src/data/bin/Jamfile to assign an icon and make the script executable.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!

Contributing code

If you're submitting a patch to us, please make sure you're following the patch submitting guidelines.

Contributing documentation

The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found in the tree at docs/user). Just find an undocumented class, write documentation for it, and submit a patch.
