One idea would be to have the "introduction" something that cm can be launched from the launcher or from system settings.<br>

Beyond that there is also the old truism that if you need to explain to the user how to do common tasks then those tasks need redesign. I am more than intetested in this subject though and think that any work on it whether it's realized or not will be valuable. If nothing else to explore the pitfalls of design clearly and how we can improve them (to avoid an install wizard)<div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 14 September 2016 14:25:26 CEST, "Martin Gräßlin" <<a href="mailto:mgraesslin@kde.org" target="_blank">mgraesslin@kde.org</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
