1. Copy help.keyman.com/developer/17.0/* into /developer/docs/help 2. Update references to 18.0 where appropriate 3. Copy all referenced images from /cdn/dev into /developer/docs/help/images and update links in documentation Next commit: add deployment to help-keyman-com.sh. Note: simplest way to test links at this point is to use the help.keyman.com auto deploy and wait for the PR on help.keyman.com to be validated; we could look at an internal link validation tool that verifies markdown links?

# Setup Bootstrapper
|
|
|
|
The Keyman Desktop installation bootstrapper is a self-extracting executable file that contains a Windows Installer technology MSI file, and optionally keyboards. The bootstrapper is used whenever a package installer is created.
|
|
|
|
The bootstrapper:
|
|
|
|
1. Checks the system before starting the installation to ensure that all prerequisites are met, and optionally downloads and installs the prerequisites.
|
|
2. Optionally checks online for an updated version of Keyman Desktop before installing.
|
|
3. Starts the Keyman Desktop Windows Installer MSI package.
|
|
4. Installs any keyboards included.
|
|
5. Starts Keyman Desktop after the install completes.
