| Matplotlib documentation |
| ======================== |
|
|
| Building the documentation |
| -------------------------- |
|
|
| See :file:`doc/devel/documenting_mpl.rst` for instructions to build the docs. |
|
|
| Organization |
| ------------ |
|
|
| This is the top level build directory for the Matplotlib |
| documentation. All of the documentation is written using sphinx, a |
| python documentation system built on top of ReST. This directory contains |
|
|
| * users - the user documentation, e.g., installation, plotting tutorials, |
| configuration tips, faq, explanations, etc. |
|
|
| * devel - documentation for Matplotlib developers |
|
|
| * api - placeholders to automatically generate the api documentation |
|
|
| * tutorials, plot_types, and gallery - automatically |
| generated by sphinx-gallery from ``../tutorials``, ``../plot_types``, and |
| ``../examples`` respectively (these are only present if docs have been |
| built locally). |
|
|
| * thirdpartypackages - redirect to <https://matplotlib.org/mpl-third-party/> |
|
|
| * mpl_toolkits - documentation of individual toolkits that ship with |
| Matplotlib |
|
|
| * index.rst - the top level include document for Matplotlib docs |
|
|
| * conf.py - the sphinx configuration |
|
|
| * Makefile and make.bat - entry points for building the docs |
|
|
| * _static - used by the sphinx build system |
|
|
| * _templates - used by the sphinx build system |
|
|
| * sphinxext - Sphinx extensions for the Matplotlib docs |
