Start here if you want to be part of the FlexWiki developer community

Once you are familiar with the materials on this page, you will want to proceed to the full DeveloperGuide.

We think of three kinds of developers being involved with FlexWiki

• ViewDeveloper - These are people who DO REALLY want to grab the sources and be able to build, debug and modify FlexWiki but don't intend to check back in any changes
• NewDeveloper - These are people who will make changes to FlexWiki and check them back in, but haven't yet "earned" CoreDeveloper status
• CoreDeveloper - These are people who have experience with the FlexWiki code base and are trusted by the community to make sure that the changes they commit are safe and won't damage the integrity of the project

Depending on how you see yourself, here's a map of information that you should read to understand what you need to do to get setup and what is expected of you in your role. Read them in order:

View	New	Core	Topic
			UnderstandingSubversion - If you aren't familiar with the Subversion version control system, read this.
			DeveloperSetup - How to get the source code on your machine and be able to debug changes locally.
			TestingFlexWiki - How we test FlexWiki.
			BecomingAContributor - What has to happen for you to become a contributor to the project
			NewDeveloperCheckinProcess - How NewDevelopers work with CoreDevelopers to get their changes checked in.
			BecomingACoreDeveloper - A discussion of how you become a CoreDeveloper.
			BuildSystem - We have a fabulous continuous integration system setup that automates FlexWiki builds.
			WhoIsWorkingOnWhat - Before digging in on something now, please update this page.
			DeveloperGuidelines - What development guidelines you are expected to follow when making a contribution to the project
			CoreDeveloperGuidelines - Additional development guidelines you are expected to follow as a CoreDeveloper when making a contribution to the project
			FlexWikiCore - how the project is broken down into VisualStudio projects

Once you've worked your way through these important preliminary materials, you will probably want to move on to the DesignReview and DeveloperHowTo.
