Checklist
- Create an account for this wiki

- We are using Adobe Connect Pro for the live seminars. Please have a look at the system requirements and make sure you have access to a computer that meets them.
- Get an IRC client and connect to the Mozilla #education channel and #jetpack channel. Here are some instructions.
- Watch the Jetpack Tutorial (by Aza Raskin)
- Install Jetpack from https://jetpack.mozillalabs.com/ (bottom of page). After restart, about:jetpack appears and you can prototype and test jetpacks right away from the Develop link. Other than that, we are flexible, i.e. you can use whatever code editor you want.
- Join the Jetpack devel group - this is the place where you can share technical questions and answers with other Jetpack developers: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla-labs-jetpack
