Summary Guide To Documentation

## Basic Information

Please refer to ../README.html for an introduction to ITK. Or see the Insight web pages.

The following are documentation resources for ITK.

- The ITK Software Guide. (The book is also available for purchase from Kitware's estore.) This is the definitive authority on ITK so please read this first.
- InsightDeveloperStart.pdf - developers guide to retrieving the code, mailing lists, web pages, the basics of development.
- Style.pdf - A succint summary of ITK coding style conventions. This can be a helpful read to understand ITK code.

## Further Information

Additional documentation is being developed in a separate CVS checkout directory (InsightDocuments). While this is not complete, and may be out of date, you may find useful information (including a coding style document). For example, the LaTeX source for The ITK Software Guide can be found in this checkout. If you would like to access this directory, use the following procedure:

       cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@www.itk.org:/cvsroot/Insight login

with password "insight"...then get the source/documentation as follows:

       cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@www.itk.org:/cvsroot/Insight checkout InsightDocuments

The checkout is gigantic---hundreds of megabytes, so please be patient.
