Documenting the mobile toolkits #25
Description
The mobile toolkits are currently lacking documentation. Let's use this issue to track the work to be done.
Some of the pages will be in the shared mobile repo while platform-dependent ones will be in swift-toolkit or kotlin-toolkit.
The integration guides will be in each platform repo and will be the gateway to more abstract concepts/APIs.

Bravo for the initiative Mickaël.
I agree that "How to setup a dev environment" is part of the Contribution Guides, more than Integration Guides: every contributor should make a clean fork and propose PRs for what the can propose to the community.

liking this as well, thanks. I think it would be useful to have a description of the concept of "positions" vs "page numbers", since it's easy to confuse the two things if you're new to Readium. I think this can be approached from both developer and a user/product point of views.

@ettore Yes definitely, I added this as a comment to "How to display page numbers?"
