I’m currently working on a french tutorial about Defold. I’m making many screenshots and details everything I can grasp to make a better understanding of the engine. So far, I’m still in early stage but I thought it might still interest some people to see my work. So here it is : [https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md](https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md) Any advice is welcome. ---

I find it very hard to browse, I think you should add a table of contents. ---

I put a TOC at the head of document. It will be a little hard to maintain as I make big edits but I’ll try to keep it up to date. ---

I can do that. Tell me what I should say about it. I don’t really know how to present it myself. I’m not really good at marketing my work.^^ ---

something like this maybe? > #French speakers can now learn making games with #Defold using the French manual: [https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md](https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md) translated by our community member @[flashjaysan](https://forum.defold.com/u/flashjaysan) ---

Nice. i’ll adapt it a little because my document is not a perfect translation of the official documentation but more of a reinterpretation. Here it is: Les francophones peuvent désormais apprendre à utilser #Defold avec un guide en français rédigé par @flashjaysan, membre de notre communauté : [https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md](https://github.com/flashjaysan/memo-defold/blob/master/memo-defold.md) In english, this means : French speaking people can now learn to use #Defold with a french guide wrote by ou community member, @flashjaysan : … Is it ok? ---

@Oleg_The_Evangelist No need to thank me. This is my pleasure and I should be the one to thank you for promoting my tiny work. There are many many missing parts yet and I don’t know how much time it will take to cover the full spectrum. If you think that an english version should be useful, I’ll do some translation too. ---

I just moved all images inside an `images` folder in order to better organise the repository. I’m still working little by little on each feature I manage to understand. There are many places where my understanding is limited (particularly in advanced settings like openGL rendering, view matrices etc…) so I think this will be more of a detailed introduction of _Defold_ than a true documentation project. I can only hope it will be of some help to beginners.^^
