# Quickstart

C4L (Components for Learning) is a plugin for the Moodle TinyMCE editor that provides a set of visual components designed explicitly for Learning, based on the parent project [componentsforlearning.org](https://componentsforlearning.org/).

You can install the plugin from the Site Administration area (*Plugins → Install plugins → Install plugin from ZIP file*). Once the plugin is installed, the corresponding button will be added to the TinyMCE editor buttons bar. 

A setting enabled by default allows previewing components on hover. To change it, just uncheck the *enablepreview* setting on *Site Administration area → Plugins → Text Editors → TinyMCE editor → Components for Learning (C4L)*.\
\
The capability 'tiny/c4l:viewplugin' allows configuring the plugin visibility to any role.\
\
This plugin is based on another plugin for Atto editor named Components for Learning (C4L) (<https://moodle.org/plugins/atto_c4l>) that is part of a broader, collaborative project called Components for Learning ([https://componentsforlearning.org](https://componentsforlearning.org/)). You will find there all the related documentation and detailed usage recommendations and examples for all components included here.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://components-for-learning.gitbook.io/components-for-learning-documentation/getting-started/quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
