Useful API doc links

These are actually quite helpful:

Scripting Basics

PySide (i.e., QtGui)

Python Scripting Tutorial

Also...click Help->Automatic python modules documentation. This is probably what you really want after reading the basic scripting tutorials. However, the thing I've found most helpful is using the interactive python console as introduced in Scripting Basics

Forum

Part Module

Part Scripting

The Category:API page has a more browseable list of API docs for a small set of modules than the main API index pages. FreeCAD and FreeCADGui are the main ones to took at, starting out.
