Tutorial Information

• Create a new tutorial page by simply typing the URL you would like to create into your browser. If it does not already exist, it will display an empty wiki page that you can start editing.
  • All tutorials must be under the Tutorial: namespace (e.g., http://extjs.com/learn/Tutorial:My_Cool_Tutorial)
  • Keep tutorials names as short and simple as possible
• If you are posting a translation, the headline should be as follows:
  • Original Tutorial Name: Example Tutorial
  • Translated Tutorial Name: Example Tutorial (<New Language>)
  • If you are translating a current tutorial, add the Language Template to all the current tutorials.
• Once you are done adding your tutorial, place a link on the Tutorial entry page under the appropriate heading. You can create a new heading if needed, but please keep headings high level.
• Add proper categories to the tutorial.
  • Always add [[Category:Tutorial]]
  • Add [[Category:<Ext JS Component>]]
    • Component Category List
  • Add [[Category:<Server Language if needed>]]

Tutorial Formating
