we're on it

The PDDP repository is... pure. A very very pure solution. No content, thus no issues. Awesome!
Is somebody know what is it supposed to be? That: https://puredata.info/downloads/pddp? -
@Nicolas-Danet PDDP was the complete Vanilla help within Pd Extended (I mentioned it above).
It contained style sheets and hyperlinks....... basically what you are all looking at accomplishing now..... but already done for Vanilla (within the Extended download) in about 2012.
That is why I suggested tweaking it for the latest Vanilla.
There was far more "help" within it than the current Vanilla help.If you download Pd Extended......... https://puredata.info/downloads/pd-extended it is certainly contained within the source code (the tarball I think).
No idea why it has been deleted from its dedicated puredata.info page.
I have often recommended that people grab it when they are stuck..... it is very helpful.Once you have the source code uncompressed just do a search for PDDP.
That will list all the Vanilla help files in the doc folder and the pddp folder that contains the files necessary to set it up as a service on a server.

@60hz I'm late to this thread but I only wanted to say that your help files look completely amazing, particularly your help-intro.pd! I've taught Pd in a lot of different ways and I can absolutely see that being extremely helpful to new users. well done!
this is a very wide-ranging discussion, but it's great to see a vision of an approach to some of these issues. -
@yannseznec
Thanks a lot! I mixed and modified the work of many people for the interface, and I regulary make change to many help patches and it works better and better with students (I use a top down logic). I hope one day pd will be easier to learn and I won't need this anymore
