Talk:How to do a Hello World application using XULRunner
I tried the tutorial again. This time the tutorial is much clearer. However, I found out a few things that could improve this tutorial:
- A link to XULRunner runtime package and mention that they have to download this package to run applications using XULRunner
- I managed to get a hello world application running with XULRunner, however, I missed out downloading the XULRunner runtime package. As this was the first time running a XULRunner application (with no background knowledge in XULRunner), I had to browse around and figure out why the application wasn't running.
First look at the tutorial, it's not as straight forward as I expected it to be, for someone who has no background on XULRunner at all.
It will be helpful if the user doesn't have to browse away to get a basic idea.
Suggestions:
- Brief introduction?
- Can you explain briefly what each item is?
- Example: Setting up the application.ini file - What does this do?? In your tutorial, it just says "The following is a sample application.ini file."
- For each item, if the explaination for the item is long, maybe provide a link to the actual documentation of it??
