   Current word-count is at 1,610.
   
   The most fleshed-out parts so far are:
   

   • 
     
   • Installation
   • Channel Basics
   • Photo Albums
   • Cloud File-Sharing/Syncing
   • Wiki
   • Community
   • Theme Development    
     

   
   There's still a lot of things to dive into - I have tons of sections and screenshots, and a lot of details to go over still. I'm particularly proud of the Theme Development section, as it dissects everything from starting a new theme file to setting up layouts with Comanche and writing custom widgets. I even found a way to demonstrate Comanche's usage visually.
   
   This might be the most comprehensive review I have ever written – I'm quite proud of what has been accomplished so far. I really want to do the system justice by sharing all the things that I think is cool about it. I also hope to get this out before Christmas.

      A super detailed review of Hubzilla 2.8, and a deep-dive of everything the system has to offer.

      Yep, those are all being documented as well. It's a pretty fun thing to write about, but I'm astounded that the system has so much depth to it.
      
      Any resources on how to set up CalDAV / CardDAV with a GNU/Linux system would of course be appreciated.

      Have you had any luck with getting this to work with Gnome applications? I keep trying with Calendar and Contacts, but I can't really seem to get it working.

      Gnome Calendar is a mess for configuring CalDAV

      It looks like it works, but it actually doesn't. Most folks I've talked to recommended using Evolution directly; which puts the data in the same place but does a better job.

       When you complete the review, would you be willing to let us use and adapt segments for the help pages? Although you are not writing documentation, I bet that parts of your review could be used to help fill gaps in the existing help pages.

       Absolutely! I'm not sure how much will be ultimately useful to the project, but pretty much everything I write is under a permissive license.

       Sorry to be annoying - has anyone gotten Hubzilla CalDAV working with macOS?
       
       I'm able to add the account through the macOS "Internet Accounts" menu, but the calendar itself does not seem to be available in the macOS Calendar app.
       
       It's not the biggest deal, but being able to demonstrate usage through Android, Linux, and Mac kind of illustrates the appeal of using Hubzilla as an iCloud / Google Apps replacement.
       
       At the very least, happy to say that everything works on Android, Linux, and the web interface.

       Getting Caldav working with KDE Plasma / Kontact was quite easy. Not 100% intuitive, but easy to find.

       Yeah, I've definitely noticed that Gnome / KDE apps are the most forgiving when it comes to interacting with WebDAV so far. Mike's tip on using Evolution to connect with my Hubzilla account was an absolutely great answer for getting the Calendar Sync to work in Gnome's native calendar app.
