During my talks and workshop on the many conferences I've been since the GSoC started I've noticed that most users were not having trouble with the WebAPI but we're facing difficulties because the Firefox OS Development documentation is spread over many place such as MDN, Mozilla Wiki, Developer Hub and so on. As an experiment before the Firefox OS Workshop in Porto Alegre, I decided to write a quick guide about Firefox OS development explaining the workflow. | |||
The result was a 70+ pages book in Portuguese that walked the user thru the whole process of installing Firefox Browser and Simulator up to shipping an app to the Firefox Marketplace. I've shown this book to my mentor and we decided to add it to the GSoC project. | |||
I've translated it to English and volunteers will help translating it to other languages. The book is released with a Creative Commons License and Free. I am just waiting my mentor feedback before linking the English version here. | |||

The Portuguese version has been very well received and has 800+ readers already. It has proven to be a very good resource and brought new developers to our platform. Its a very good tool to distribute on workshops and forums. | |||
