Hello Daniel
I really buy into your idea.
We definitively need more consistent documentation on AeroGear features with concrete and
simple exemple (like we started in cookbook).
Let's refactor our documentation together and meake suure we go in the same
direction.
See Hylke thread on it [1]. As suggested by Hylke, let's group our documentation per
category/features: core, push, security, offline/sync. We could have a general description
of what the features is, some link to specs etc..
Then the sample part. Each sample/recipe(from cookbook) should be well documented and
follow a similar template like you gist shown it. I've done similar with iOS-cookbook.
One central readme [1] which list all recipes. Each recipes [2] has is own documentation
following the same template. We ca work on unifying the template. I like prerequisites
section, install/build section common to both, you miss a short description of the app and
some ui flow with pictures would be nice and then a last sec ion we we explain the main
fatures we want ot demo.
A couple of questions on implementation though:
- Instead of just having links to cookbook, how can we embed in asciidoc or markdown? the
sample documentation should belong to the cookbook repo.
- How are we going to publish read me info from cookbook into
aerogear.org repo? a build
or some sort of automation will be good.

Summers and I tossed around the idea last week to create a 'root
document' how to build AeroGear android lib and apps.
The idea is write a simple document that looks like ActionBar Sherlock doc instead of
having a huge doc with lots of repeated setup, have a setup docs which branch from there
Publish it on
aerogear.org and link all others (like README) with it
My draft for it is here:
