Thats the point. Currently its hard to directly point someone to tutorials,
reasonable manuals (the ones you dont have to read 50 pages just to know
event if its what you want). Take a look at the screenshot. There is almost
0 links, taht would be useful for a beginner to start hacking plasmoids.

It exposes another very serious FOSS problem - almost no SEO is used here.
There (probably) are many good info how to stat/have things done, but no one
can find it. How its even possible to have 3 Top10 links to mailing list
archives? Almost none reads them (its done in you inbox, not in web
archive).The next 5 is the story how something moved to git. If you are dev
of one of the moved software, you get informed via mailing-lists. If you are
new contributor, such info is pointless to you. All you want is 10 lines of
bash to to get things started, and some tuts with nice screenshots to get
the picture.

But its getting a bit off topic, and SEO part must be a new topic.
