# Documentation

We write the PyLith documentation in Markedly Structured Text (a Markdown version of reStructured Text) and generate the manual using Sphinx.
The manual is automatically built for the `main` branch and posted at <https://pylith.readthedocs.io>.

## Contributing to the documentation

In browsing the HTML documentation there is a one-to-one correspondence between an HTML page and its Markdown page.
You can look at the URL of the HTML page and the corresponding Markdown page will be in the `docs` directory with the `.html` suffix replaced by `.md`.
