====Sugar Human Interface Guidelines (HIG)====
====Sugar Human Interface Guidelines (HIG)====
* http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Human_Interface_Guidelines.
* http://sugarlabs.org/go/DesignTeam/Human_Interface_Guidelines.
These pages give a good introduction to the thought process behind the Sugar environment and will help a lot when designing your activity.
Required reading before planning the user interface for your activity. These pages give a good introduction to the thought process behind the Sugar environment and will help a lot when designing your activity.
====JSON introduction====
====JSON introduction====
JSON is a data format commonly used to store activity data in the Journal.

Currently, the recommended JSON library is simplejson. It has also become the standard JSON library in Python 2.6+.
====Git introduction====
====Git introduction====
Git is the version control software used by Sugar Labs. It is a distributed version control system and is quite powerful, but requires a lot of command line use.

====XML routine====
====XML routines====
There are [http://docs.python.org/library/markup.html dozens] Python classes to satisfy XML standard but if you want just save/load parameters use "Zen of XML" in Python - [http://effbot.org/zone/element.htm ElementTree] library. It's supported out of the box in Python 2.5(xml.etree.ElementTree module). In previous version you'll have to install library by yourself.

But if you just need a simple configuration format to read/write Python objects, check out JSON instead.
