Hi Martin,
I was able to clone the inkscape-web project to my machine. But the 3rd and 4th commands I believe are only targeted to Linux machines and not Windows.
./utils/init ./utils/run [<domain>:<port>]
Do you know how can I run those on Windows?
Possibly you may want to look at how to run a Linux virtual machine on Windows, and run the commands inside that.

Hi Victor,
You can start here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-web/wikis/ development/
Let me know if you need any help, I'll be on IRC #inkscape-devel if you have questions.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Bryce and Martin,
I read the wiki page on Gitlab. Is beautifully organized. Thanks for
that.
Where should I start? How do I check my initial access to the website? What are the help options available for newbies on the website (not for
the
application)?

Thanks Victor,
It would be great to have your help with the website. Let me know if you need help getting set up, I try and keep it accessible (although it sometimes breaks, so let me know right away if you have issues)
Anyway. Let me know how you'd like to help.
Martin,

Hi Martin,
I don't have a way to try this since I only have windows machines at home but I am willing to help in other ways If I can. :)
The website download improved so much over the years! It is way more practical than it was before. I was just wondering if we could modernize it somehow... but I know
that
there's a lot of intelligence under the hood.
I thought it was a nice example, the VLC one, because it auto detects the operating system and architecture (like blender). But it is also very nice to look at the libre office download page example (https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/)
What is nice from the blender download page example is that it auto detects the operating system and architecture (https://www.blender.org/download/) which also resembles the Download page of Google Chrom (https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html). One page
I
really think its beautiful is the Krita's download page example (https://krita.org/en/download/krita-desktop/) is there something we
can
sell related to Inkscape (wheter it's professional support or custom made development ) that could be offered at download the download page? I feel we could spread something from the project in this section since it is
the
one with most visibility when new releases are published.
Just a couple of ideas..

Thanks for the link Victor,
The python implementation is pretty good as far as os detection goes. It does specific things like parses out known linux variants. A lot
of
the bog standard os detectors are rather crappy with Linux detection. Do you have any trials on how good this js library is for Linux distros?
We're also parsing out 64 vs 32 bit.
