.About this Document
Lumiera is still under active development. Here we describe planned features
without explicitly tagging them; some points have still to be worked out in
detail. Although this document is heavily cross-linked, we try to start with a
broad overview, then develop details towards the end.
Lumiera is an innovative video editing software, still under active development
by an open source community. This document acts as introduction, we try to start
with a broad overview, then explain some core concepts towards the end.
We describe planned features here without explicitly tagging them and we'll omit
any technical details.
There is a link:Glossary.html[Glossary of common terms]; readers curious about
the inner workings might want to continue their path of exploration into

Glossary
--------
~~~~~~~~
The above outline of the design uses a lot of special terms and common terms
used with specific meaning within Lumiera. To ease the understanding, we've
collected a link:Glossary.html[Glossary of common terms].
Tutorials and User Manual
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For most users, the next step would be to skim the user manual and to install
the application. But we aren't this far, unfortunately. As of 1/2013, Lumiera
isn't usable in any way. Later, when we approach the alpha and beta development phase,
we'll care for a user manual and a tutorial section.
The Inner Core
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Developers and Readers curious about the inner workings of the application
might want to have a look into the overview document of our technical
documentation section. Learn more about
