How To Get Answers

Ask your question and then be patient. Tell us what you want to happen, what is actually happening, and include any error messages you find:

• Provide a scenario. "I am trying to do X, I do so by calling APIs W and Y, but Z happens instead. I see the following error messages:..."
• Focus on the goal. Ask about what you're trying to achieve (the big story) rather than the specific technical detail that you believe is holding you back.
• Don't solicit help. Don't say, "Does anyone here know about (for example) Protocol Extensions". Just ask your question.
• Do your homework. Search the web before asking in-channel.
• Be courteous Don't just paste Stack Overflow questions in-channel.
• Remember the topic Refer questions about third party libraries to their developers.
