Steps to Find What You're Looking For

  1. Search the docs. If it's a common question we probably already answer it here or in the other docs: Pocket Core, PocketJS.
  2. Search the forum. If it's not in the docs yet, there's a good chance someone already asked in the forum.
  3. Ask in the forum. If no one else has asked, use the Support Request category to ask for help. We automatically forward all requests to Discord, so don't worry about people noticing it.
  4. Ask in Discord. Only once you've done the above steps should you ask your question in Discord.
