How to learn it?

  • If you're not sure where to start, one approach might be to:
  1. See if there's something in the demos that is close to what you want to do
  2. Review the demo source code.
  3. If you see commands in the source and don't understand what it's doing check the API Docs for more info
  4. At the same time that you search in the demos, see if there's a tutorial for what you're about to do that might provide additional commentary.
  5. Check the FAQs if you encounter any problems along the way for the part you're working on.
  6. If you're branching into something more complex, then check the tutorial section for Application Design stuff (how to structure your app, working with scope, extending, xtypes, etc).
  7. Also if you're branching out check the extensions to see if someone has done something similar. There is a forum for extensions, as well as a recent initiative to house extensions in a more centralized, searchable location.
  8. Wait for a book (rumor has it there are at least two in the works, but don't expect these until early/mid 2009).
  9. Finally feel free to contribute your learning experience to a tutorial or supplement the FAQs. Don't worry about posting something wrong, someone will correct it.
