## Can I advertise in your guide?
No.
No. There is no financial motivation. I just strive for freeing the world of email services once again.

## Can I download the guide as one file?
I havent yet found a way to accomplish that. WordPress is not especially good when it comes to structured multi-page documentation. If anyone has a hint Id be grateful.
Unfortunately there is no easy way to accomplish that. Especially with interactive components like tabs of quizzes. The reasons are technical not malice.
## Why dont you put the guide on Github as Markdown?
## Your guide looks cool. How did you make it?
This website runs on WordPress because I wanted something easy to edit and also have discussions on each page. I might be a hardcore terminal user but just sometimes I prefer to have a WYSIWYG editor. I tried several ways to work with multi-file Markdown builders but the workflow was uncomfortable and lead to ugly documentation. Besides we wouldnt have discussions on the pages and Im surely not including Quora for discussions.
The site is generated using [Starlight](https://starlight.astro.build/). Discussions at the bottom of each page are powered by [Comentario](https://comentario.app/).
Diagrams have been created using [Inkscape](https://inkscape.org/). User tracking is handled by [Matomo](https://matomo.org/).
Everything here has been generated using open-source software and is not using any public cloud services.
## I can offer to translate your guide.
That is very kind to offer help. I understand the motivation to give back something. But trust me: you will lose interest quickly and regret your offer.
The guide is huge. It may not appear like much but once you start typing you realize just how many months of work went into it.
Even translating will take 1-2 weeks of your time. And after that someone would have to maintain both the original version and your translation.
We tried that a couple of times and it did not turn out well.
