Bookshelf will allow users to create, display and share learning resources quickly through the Umbraco backoffice.
Bookshelf works by reading markdown files from the UmbracoBookshelf folder of your website.
##Install this Package## Use NuGet or Our Umbraco to download and install like you would any other Umbraco package.
##Install a Book## Books are available on the Bookshelf dashboard or you can install any zipped markdown book.
##Editing a Book##
To edit a book, simply click Edit on an .md file page. If the book is hosted on GitHub, please consider sending revisions and additional content.
##Creating a Book#
Books are just .md files that live in the UmbracoBookshelf folder of your webroot. So to create a book, just create a sub-folder next to your other books (like this one). By default when a user clicks the folder in the tree to the left, the README.md file is loaded for the user.
Want to add images? Just add a folder with images and use relative links.
Links beginning with http auto open in a new tab.
Books should be written in Markdown and Bookshelf recognizes Github Flavored Markdown. Please use the following resources when learning Markdown:
- https://help.github.com/articles/markdown-basics/
- https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown/
There is now an editor to help you create folders, files and markdown.
Please refrain from using HTML directly when possible. Some things like embedding videos are unavoidable.
##Consider Contributing Your Time## If you like Bookshelf, please consider helping by adding features or creating books for others to use.
