This is the initial draft of a "User Handbook", or FAQ. Currently contains useful info on the basics, graphics, and architecture/platform info.

Archive.org OR archive.is should be used for linking external websites, especially since their content should not change. And most often than not, in a few years these could change.

# User configuration
# User Handbook
## Configuration directories
The "FAQ".
Eden will store configuration in the following directories:
This handbook is primarily aimed at the end-user - baking useful knowledge for enhancing their emulation experience.
- **Windows**: `%AppData%\Roaming`.
- **Android**: Data is stored internally.
- **Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, Solaris, OpenBSD**: `$XDG_DATA_HOME`, `$XDG_CACHE_HOME`, `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.
If a `user` directory is present in the current working directory, that will override all global configuration directories and the emulator will use that instead.
- **[The Basics](user/Basics.md)**
- **[Audio](user/Audio.md)**
- **[Graphics](user/Graphics.md)**
- **[Platforms and Architectures](user/Architectures.md)**
