Source files for the documentation on the AnkiDroid website ankidroid.org.

• manual.asc → manual.html

Pull requests generate the HTML manual as an artifact which can be viewed on the GitHub Actions page.

The documentation on this site is written in the Asciidoc syntax, and should be compiled with Asciidoctor

On Ubuntu you should be able to install with apt: sudo apt-get install asciidoctor

On Windows try the following:

• Install Ruby
• Open command prompt with Ruby
• Enter the command gem install asciidoctor

• Open terminal or command prompt with Ruby
• Enter the command asciidoctor FULL_PATH_TO_SOURCE_FILE
• A file will be generated with the same name as the source file, but with .html extension.

The preferred method of contributing to the documentation is to fork the ankidroiddocs project on github, and send a pull request with your additions in the usual way. However, if you don't know how to use github, you can simply download the "manual.asc" file and send it to a project member or the Google Group.

To create a translation of the manual, please make a copy of "manual.asc" and add "-LANUGAGE_CODE" (list of ISO_639-1 language codes). For example for Italian submit a translated file called "manual-it.asc" based on the original source file.

Translations should be periodically updated to reflect any changes in the original manual. Details of all changes can be found in the list of commits.
