User docs?

[davelab6]

What's the plan, forecast, schedule, for user docs, so that a random pro level type designer can get started using Fontra?

[justvanrossum]

Good questions! We will draft a plan and will get back to you.

We also don't have a good definition of what could be considered "feature-complete", but I believe the answer to that is at least somewhat related to the user docs question.

@davelab6 There is a Fontra-Docs page initially created by @gferreira :
https://gferreira.github.io/fontra-docs/

I recently started to extend and update it with a view pull requests:
https://github.com/gferreira/fontra-docs/pulls

Long term, we should consider to move it to googlefonts-github.
But for now, it's a great starting point.

A link to this page has been added to the menu bar, already. As you can see in the following screenshot:

It will be an ongoing project. So, I am not sure if you want to close this discussion?

@justvanrossum and @davelab6
Probably the right moment to move this to a different location, please see: googlefonts/fontra-docs#12 (comment)

@justvanrossum @JeremieHornus Is there any progress on moving the documentation to a different location? I would like to update the documentation every now and then (when ever it makes sense), eg. when we introduce a new feature like we just did this week with the new shape tool.

I am closing this discussion because:

1. it's an ongoing project (we will take of it)
2. the github repository has been moved from @gferreira to googlefonts successfully
