<p>It goes through web installer, then onboarding tool, before the
Admin, but yes, we could move the admin section down. You can
either send a patch, or do that in gitlab and send a merge
request.</p>
<p>(Will be for 17.11, not changing the structure of 17.05 now :) So
make changes on the master branch)</p>
<p>Katrin has written a page, with sphinx and gitlab the barrier
should be much easier, Im hoping the doc manager role is more and
more that, managing, not authoring.</p>

<div dir="ltr">I've been wondering for a while if it would be a
good idea to move the administration section farther back in the
manual. As it stands, a new user, first reading through the
manual will read through a page or two of introduction, and then
get thrown straight into 600+ system preferences. I'm coming up
on four years working with Koha, and I *almost* feel equipped to
read through all of those, end-to-end.

<div>Of course no-one actually reads the manual that way; we
tell people to browse the table of contents and cherry pick
the parts that they find the most interesting, and expand
their knowledge from there -- but maybe we could provide a
friendlier more intuitive introduction which, pre-supposes
that a reader is sitting in front of a system that is
configured with some sane default settings, and gives a tour
of Koha's features? That seems like a much friendlier
approach.</div>
