Invenio documentation¶

Welcome to Invenio’s documentation. This documentation is divided into different parts. We recommend that you get started with First Steps with Invenio and then head over to the Quickstart. Besides the quickstart, there is also a more detailed Tutorial that shows how to create a complete application with Invenio. If you’d rather dive into the internals of Invenio, check out the API documentation. Common patterns are described in the Patterns section.

Invenio depends on several external libraries:

• the Flask microframework for Python (based on Werkzeug and Jinja2),
• the Jinja2 template engine,
• the Werkzeug WSGI toolkit,
• the SQLAlchemy SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper.

These libraries are not documented here. If you want to dive into their documentation, check out the following links:
