Technical documentation for sysadmins/developers/etc working on Appropedia

Welcome

Welcome to Appropedia's shell account, mysterious future tech person!

Here is a bunch of documentation you might find useful. It's part of a github repo you can find at https://github.com/Appropedia/techdocs and the repo is cloned into ~/docs on our VPS server account.

Start here

Some good docs to read for starters:

• access.md -- what access you will need to work on appropedia
• ssh.md -- how/why to use ssh to access the shell account
• shell.md -- shell account notes, including directory layout
• github.md -- using github to update these docs (and other stuff)

Once you've found your bearings you're probably going to want:

• mediawiki.md -- wiki admin notes, eg. upgrading, tweaking settings, etc.
