You may have come across the lovely cheat sheets at:
http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/cheat-sheets/
for PHP, CSS etc.
What would you like on a MODx one?
all of the api calls for snippet coding would be great!
Anything that isn’t on our current cheat sheet! ("What cheat sheet?", you ask. "Exactly!")
Yeah, anything API specific as well as common global variables and such. Having a good cheat sheet would be handy while writing snippets, plugins, and such.

I think ideally there should be 2 cheat sheets (as if you haven’t got enough to do already

): one for developers with API stuff etc, and one for the actual users of the website (our clients) with all the basics; how to make a new page, add images, stuff like that.
Thanks for MODx - I love it!
Right. There’s potentially three sheets:
Developer stuff
Snippet usage stuff
Site usage stuff
with some overlap between them. I would imagine that the Site usage one would need to be customised to the client, but I’ll see what I can do.
I’m also making notes while doing this of things that aren’t clear or are missing in the documentation.
In terms of snippets: what else is essential other than Wayfinder, Ditto and MaxiGallery? (I’m aiming to have this complete when 0.9.5 is released).

Note to self: WebPage events and Manager events, in the order in which they are triggered.
Thanks for the reminder. I’m going to revisit this and have an early version out soon. Remember, it’s tied to 0.9.5.
