This is the flaik knowledge base. Here you will find a number of great resources that will guide you on your journey to build a simpler, smarter, better ski school. Whether you are an instructor staying on top of your day, an admin planning out your next season, or anyone in between, there is something here for you.
On the left side of your screen, you will find the table of contents. It is a comprehensive list of every page in the knowledge base. Scroll through and take a look!
To make things easy to find, we've grouped the content to align with your role at your resort:
On the right side of your screen lies the page outline, which is effectively a table of contents but for an individual page. Use this to navigate particularly lengthy pages with ease! The page outline may not be visible if your window is too small. If you don't see it, try zooming the page out.
An individual page will typically contain a step-by-step guide on how to perform a specific task in flaik. These guides often include screenshots, embedded videos, and important tips & tricks to help you navigate the site.
On the top right, you will see a search button. Clicking on it will open quick find, a useful tool that will let you find content with keywords. This is particularly useful if you know what information you're trying to find (for example, "Blue Banner") but you are unsure where it is nested in the table of contents.
Hint: You can open quick find at any time by pressing ctrl + K on Windows or command + K on macOS.
