h1. Documentation The documentation project is a part of the overall Arvados effort. h2. Guides There are three guides that will be developed to support the use of Arvados: * [[User Guide]] - All of the information for anyone developing analysis or web applications using Arvados. * [[Administration Guide]] - Instructions on how to administer and Arvados cluster for system administrators. * [[Installation Guide]] - How to install and configure Arvados to run in different cloud environments. h2. Documentation Project The Arvados documentation is written in Markdown, Textile, and HTML. The source code is in the @doc@ directory in the Arvados source tree. We use Jekyll to render HTML pages. h2. Contributing Bugs in the documentation can be submitted as "issues":/projects/arvados/issues. To contribute to the documentation, clone the Arvados source repository, edit, and send pull requests just as you would when contributing program source code (see [[Contributing to the Project]]). We do not yet maintain a separate documentation mailing list, so we encourage documentation contributors to join the main developer mailing list.
