[PySide] Contributing to documentation?

[Sean Fisk]

Hi Eric,

A while ago, I wrote a script to generate the PySide documentation
<https://github.com/seanfisk/pyside-docs>. It’s intensely complex because
it requires a qdoc3 executable from Qt 4.6.4 for XML output support (if my
memory serves). That repository might be a place to start.

For what it’s worth, I usually just use the C++ documentation and prior
knowledge of porting patterns to write my PySide code. I realize that’s not
really an answer, but it’s worked for me thus far.

Good luck,
​
