[[http://niche-canada.org/member-projects/zotero-guide/chapter1.html|How to Write a Zotero Translator]] \\ A fairly comprehensive tutorial for beginners, written by Adam Crymble, describing how to write a translator using Scaffold. Limited to screen scrapers. Uses downlevel tools. | |
| |
[[how_to_write_a_zotero_translator_plusplus|How to Write a Zotero Translator++]] **(IN PROGRESS)** \\ Attempts to update Crymble (with same limitations, i.e. uses Scaffold to write a screenscaper), and eventually wikify Crymble, using uplevel tools. Currently it is merely a list of deltas to Crymble, so one will unfortunately need to work with both resources open. | |

[[scaffold|Scaffold: an IDE for Zotero translators]] (only compatible with Zotero 1.0.x) \\ Scaffold is a Firefox extension designed to help you write translators. Some people find it worthwhile to keep a separate Firefox profile running Zotero 1.0 and Scaffold if they are writing translators under Windows. (As of 1 Jul 2010, an unofficial build of Scaffold 2.0 is available [[http://bitbucket.org/rmzelle/scaffold/downloads|here]]. Scaffold 2.0 will be available from zotero.org in the near future.) | |

[[translators reference guide|Zotero Translators - The Missing Manual]] This missing manual aims to expand on Adam Crymble's introductory tutorial, discussing the functions in Zotero.Utilities, describing how translators can call other translators, and more. | |
