Documentation

If you're just starting out with Isis, we recommend you look first at:

  • the applib documentation (PDF, HTML)
  • the core documentation (PDF, HTML)

If you're looking to contribute to Isis, we also recommend you look at the contributors documentation (PDF, HTML)

Thereafter, we've broken Isis documentation out by component. That means that any given documentation is likely to have just the information you require to use or configure that component. It also makes it easier for us to maintain those documents. The table below lists all the documentation guides available, along with their current status.
