+<h1>Before You Start</h1> |
+ |
+ |
+<p> |
+This documentation tells you how to write packaged apps. |
+All developers, however, should know that the new APIs |
+for packaged apps are being released as a developer preview. |
+This means that they are evolving daily, |
+and anything you read now might be different in the near future. |
+Please keep up to date with the API reference and documentation. |
+If you hit any stumbling blocks, |
+feedback is welcome at |
+<a href="http://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/group/chromium-apps">#chromium-apps</a> |
+</p> |
+ |
+<p class="caution"> |
+<b>Note:</b> |
+If you've written packaged apps before, |
+your <a href="http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/apps.html">legacy packaged apps</a> |
+will still work the way they always have, |
+but they won't have access to the new APIs. |
+</p> |
+ |
+<h2 id="start">Where to start</h2> |
+ |
+<p> |
+The <a href="about_apps.html">Getting Started</a> guide is a great place to start. |
+It's fast reading; shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to read all three docs. |
+After the Getting Started guide, |
+decide what's most relevant to you. |
+The <a href="app_lifecycle.html">Fundamentals</a> guide covers |
+the details of the app and data lifecycle, |
+or learn more about good app design |
+by reading <a href="app_frameworks.html">MVC Architecture</a>. |
+We've also got lots of sample code in our repository |
+that is linked to directly from the documentation. |
+</p> |
+ |
+<p> |
+If you're familiar with the Chrome extension docs, |
+then the Reference docs should seem familiar. |
+Packaged apps and extensions share a common platform. |
+They can access many of the same APIs, |
+they have the same manifest and permissions format. |
+Many of the reference docs are shared; |
+we've filtered accessibility to docs that aren't shared. |
