Summary: "Getting Started" guide for Luke
Key: LUCENE-9459
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9459
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: modules/luke
Reporter: Tomoko Uchida
While Luke has been very popular, widely accepted tool to Lucene users
(including Solr and Elasticsearch users) for 10+ years, it lacks good
documentation and/or user guide. Although Luke is a GUI tool that describes
itself, it's not good for new users.
The lack of documentation is partly due to my laziness though, there is some
inherent difficulty of explaining such low-level tool; if you don't know Lucene
you don't understand Luke's capability or usefulness, if you once understand
Lucene at some level, it's obvious to you and no explanation is needed. :)
Nonetheless, it would be great if we have "Getting Started" documentation for
Luke on our web site for new userd/devs.
We may be able to have a Markdown file with some screenshots and usage
descriptions, then convert it to HTML by Gradle task, so that we can publish
it with whole API documentation.
