Besides this wiki
https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares_toolkit/wiki
is there any guide how the bitshares code is structured?

What I mean is:
1. Which part of the code is Bitshares X implementation and which part is a generic base to be extended when building other DACs?
2. A walk-through how to use the library would be very appreciated. I managed to compile the whole bitshares toolkit but now I have no idea how to use it. Maybe this would be good: a simple example showing how to construct a "Hello World DAC" using the toolkit.

THere are some large holes in documentation.  The toolkit isn't that easy to use AFAIK.   You've pointed at a hole in the documentation, but lots of things going on right now.  There is the developer's wiki at https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares_toolkit/wiki which you can poke around.  It is unfortunate but I think the toolkit aspect has not been given huge priority due to the need to get BTSX going smoothly.  Then after that Bitshares has DNS to release.

Just so everyone knows, this is constantly being updated with little small issues as I find them in the forums.

There is also a How-To if you want to try to run a Delegate.  (Be warned - it is hard to be elected)

General questions about anything related to Bitshares X that a suitable answer was posted for.  Mostly from the forums.
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_Solutions

Here is a wallet to receive a BTSX to register an account and get started.

For those who are interested in running a delegate.
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Bitshares-x-delegate-how-to

An initial attempt at listing the wallet commands you are actually likely to use.  Meant for command line interface (CLI) users.
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Useful_Wallet_Commands

This is the wiki maintained by the developers.  They're very busy getting stuff done, so it can be a bit out of date in places.  It is the best place to start if you want to do development related to Bitshares.

Maybe this could be stickied for a couple weeks.  I plan on reading through the 3 forums BTSX/General/B&E and see what isn't in the wiki article.

Hopefully I can get something on voting or possibly Delegate running.  I'm not sure ..
