Newbie startup help. Tutorial? Learning path?
Hi, I'm trying to avoid taking up a lot of peoples valuable time. SIP & FS have brought some ideas for some commercial products but I need to know where to start. Having once written a proprietary DOS & helped with writing a RTOS, I consider myself capable of learning. I (we) just need to know where to start to come up to speed rapidly. Is there a FreeSWITCH tutorial available? Should someone new start with Asterisk and then possibly move to FS? Thanks, Merle
You will find all the informations, and then some, here: http://wiki.freeswitch.org Then, after reading and testing and experimenting, come to the IRC channel for direct help with esoteric (or not so esoteric) problems. You'll find a nice and friendly community. -gm Sincerely, Giovanni Maruzzelli Cell : +39-347-2665618 On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 3:25 PM, Merle J. Ebbert<se02005-mec@yahoo.com> wrote:

Speaking as someone who went through this recently myself, my suggestion is to learn by doing. Choose some simple-sounding task you want to accomplish in FS, and try to carry it out. Use the wiki as a reference and the mailing list if you can't figure out what you need from that. I don't suggest you start with Asterisk or anything else, as I'd guess that would just confuse the issue. I came from a BIOS background, went directly into Freeswitch, and am so far glad I did.

BTW, if you're in Europe then you can get a copy of the September issue of Linux-Pro magazine. (I thinks it's just called Linux Magazine in Europe.) It has a very gentle introduction to FS. The mag should be available any time in US and end of August in Australia/NZ. -MC
