WikiD Instructables

Welcome

WikiD Instructables is currently in Beta status and is not yet complete.

My aim here is to provide simple to follow manual pages and guides for various topics and subjects. I also aim to share many of the antics and technical stuff I get up to, how I learn new skills and hopefully provide you with the tools you need to get it all going for yourselves. It is easier to forget information than it is to learn something new. So here, I will archive how I interpret these things. I am not a genius, nor a scientist or lawyer. I am just a simple person trying to make the best of what is available, usually on a limited budget! What may you expect to find here?

Networking	Smarthome	Amateur Radio
Domestic networking to accommodate today's needs on a budget using OSS and re-purposed hardware	Smart home devices, tricks, services & security. Other solutions for getting your smart home in your control!	Now that I am licensed (M7 since November '18), I will include projects I get upto here!

And of course, the projects that gave me incentive to create this site and documentation!

Tasker	Watchmaker	OSS Alternatives
My own, home brew documentation and manual pages for Tasker and some plugins!	Watchmaker for Android & iOS, WearOS, Tizen & iWatch. Tasker integration & Lua code!	Some Open Source alternatives to proprietary options available!

Please do bare with me as I update the site to make it less of an eyesore and provide feature-rich content. I want to keep the site as simple as possible without too many graphics or fancy stuff so that it remains fast and responsive. It does look better on a mobile browser!

Tips & Pointers

Any manuals, documents, instructables or other references to apps, software or services will have a “HowHard” rating assigned to them. These are how I personally rate the difficulty and is not a definitive score.

Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

This means that the app, guide, feature or service is very easy to use. Usually no configuration is required, or is straightforward enough to be self explanatory.

Can do it in your sleep

This means that the app, guide, feature or service is relatively easy to use. Some configuration may be required, or is straightforward enough to be self explanatory. May require steps unfamiliar, but nothing daunting!

Might wanna beverage for this

This means that the app, guide, feature or service may be difficult at first to use. Configuration likely required, or required some knowledge on the topic. Will likely contain steps unfamiliar. May even need using additional resources to complete.

Yeah! That might be a bit above me!

This means that the app, guide, feature or service is difficult to use or requires some previous experience. Configuration mandatory and likely requiring some knowledge on the topic. Unfamiliar steps will be present and there is a likely of damage/harm if not correctly followed.

Hair loss assured!

This means that the app, guide, feature or service is likely only usable for expert use. Will likely require programming knowledge or knowledge on the topic. Dragons be ahead, so tread with caution!
