Hi,

What’s the best way to learn about URCap development?  
In the tutorial seemed to lack enough information…

So far it’s just the tutorial PDF and the samples that come with the SDK or Starter package. If you have basic knowledge with linux and eclipse and you can work with Java and OOP you can start by trying to understand the samples and when you hit a blocking point just browser the forums because a lot of questions that you will have are already addressed here. Eventually if you can’t find an answer you will see that this community is really a good place to ask for help.  
At least that is how I did it.  
Best of luck,  
David
