Documentation
=============
This documentation section contains documentation for both users and developers.
== User ==
As a start, you should visit the introductory text

A user manual containing the full reference for using Lumiera is planned:
* link:user/manual.html[User Manual] _(planned)_
== Developer ==

These documents give an overview on the main components of the application:
* link:design/index.html[Design Documents]
Programming-oriented details about the functional layers of Lumiera as well as a Doxygen documentation :
* link:technical/index.html[Technical Documents]
* link:technical/code/codingGuidelines.html[Style and Coding Guidelines]
=== the TiddlyWiki ===
Currently, Lumiera is still in the design- and evolution phase.
There is an embedded JavaScript wiki (TiddlyWiki) within the source tree, mostly
used as design notebook, featuring day-to-day design sketches, notes but also
quite some more persistent planning. Finished documentation text is constantly
moved over to the documentation section(s) of the Lumiera website.
-> access the Proc-Layer link:http://lumiera.org/wiki/renderengine.html[TiddlyWiki online here]
=== API Documentation ===
We use the link:http://www.doxygen.org/index.html[Doxygen] tool to extract
code comments and generate code level API and reference documentation.

== Media and Presentations ==
