Lack of Heist Documentation
Closed this issue · 2 comments
The documentation for heist is very difficult for beginners.
Specifically, the heist documentation does not show you a small, ten line demo that uses Snap to render a single test.tpl file. There needs to be a single simple demo example that people can base things off of, and currently, that doesn't exist – the documentation is difficult to follow, the tutorial does not show real code examples that form a single complete example, points you to initHeist and so on which are very difficult to use, and O'Charles 24 Days of Hackage is example seems to be years outdated.
Until this is fixed, heist is effectively unusable for beginners! Please fix this.
The example application generated by snap init is a fully functioning demo example that uses heist.
I updated the quick start page to mention this.
