Welcome to the READCOM: Reading Communities App wiki!

Application walk-through video (showing pre-release version 0.0.18): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vXp5jUf8cU

Testing

The default document shown when app first launches (or with New button) contains some links for stories to try, including the Tortoise and the Hare Aesop fable.

Alternatively:

  • can try downloading manually and opening that story for testing (right click the link and select to Save As a .readcom file - to use that story's URL in URLActions of StoryItems right click the URL and select Copy, then right-click and Paste in the URLAction editbox at the popup dialog of the ActiveStoryItem in the app).
  • can download the whole Gallery in a .ZIP file (extract its Gallery subfolder somewhere on your PC) and load that sample story from the "Stories/Aesop Fables" folder, per the instructions found at https://github.com/Zoomicon/READCOM_Gallery/. The Gallery also contains useful media assets of permissive license at "Assets" subfolder to add to your stories
