Documentation on world XML files

[jhwangbo]

raisim.com is a static website hosted by github. I cannot create a forum there.

I don't expect much inputs from users. Even for pybullet which has a large community of users, users don't interact much at the forum (https://pybullet.org/Bullet/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=24&sid=c877c19002be97510433e00ede9de1c9).

I think Github issue has been decent so far. Search is easy. I can label an issue. I can also easily reference a commit. Github will never go out of business (at least until this project becomes inactive).

You have a few examples here https://github.com/raisimTech/raisimLib/tree/master/rsc/xmlScripts

Yes, I definitely have to add proper documentation on the XML scripting part. I'll add it this week.

The downside of a forum is that I have to pay for the server maintenance. Github is free. Is there anything you cannot do with the Github issue list? what's the advantage of a forum over Github?

Alright, examples are will definitely be enough for now.

About forums:
Yeah, that's a fair consideration.
I guess there isn't anything I cannot do, but I think finding existing information might be easier. And a forum is better suited for users-amongst-users discussion, while Github issues feel more like users-with-developers.

There are some free forums available. You could give it a go and migrate to a real service if you like it.
Can't you host it on https://raisim.org? Otherwise a VPS starts at 4$ a month. Please contact me directly if you think I might be able to help you! Let's table that part of the discussion otherwise.
