 Glider Ink is created as a **slice of life** ([Wikipedia](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Slice_of_life) [TVTropes](http://​tvtropes.org/​pmwiki/​pmwiki.php/​Main/​SliceOfLife)) story, featuring daily lives of members of a hackerspace community. It is not a science fiction - all described technologies exist and are linked to in appropriate sections of this wiki - preferably with a full build instruction. Glider Ink is created as a **slice of life** ([Wikipedia](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Slice_of_life) [TVTropes](http://​tvtropes.org/​pmwiki/​pmwiki.php/​Main/​SliceOfLife)) story, featuring daily lives of members of a hackerspace community.

-Since the characters are fictional representatives of a very real movement, Glider Ink may be considered a **docufiction** ​[Wikipedia](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Docufiction). Not to be confused with a [mockumentary](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Mockumentary) or [docudrama](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Docudrama).+Since the characters are fictional representatives of a very real movement, Glider Ink may be considered a  [docufiction](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Docufiction).

 +This comic has nothing to do with [cyberpunk](https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Cyberpunk),​ which is already [too strong of an influence on our perceptions](http://​www.ribbonfarm.com/​2016/​10/​27/​the-cyberpunk-sensibility/​). We don't want to enforce the feeling of hopelessness and digital divide, embracing technology ownership and empowerment instead. In terms of Jugaad-style hacks, communities and bringing power to the people Glider Ink is much closer to [postcyberpunk](http://​tvtropes.org/​pmwiki/​pmwiki.php/​Main/​PostCyberPunk) [[manifesto]](https://​news.slashdot.org/​story/​99/​10/​08/​2123255/​notes-toward-a-postcyberpunk-manifesto) and [solarpunk](http://​hieroglyph.asu.edu/​2014/​09/​solarpunk-notes-toward-a-manifesto/​).

 +The purpose of this project is to introduce hackerspaces as communities and hacker values to the popular culture, not to make money.

 +## Language and Translation 
 + 
 +While the Glider is written in English, it will automatically get a Polish translation and full documentation for translators. [Pepper & Carrot](http://​www.peppercarrot.com/​) project has came up with awesome tools for community translating of the comic and we will most probably follow their steps.
