<li>tight integration with Apache Ant - while available as a standalone tool,
Ivy works particularly well with Apache Ant providing a number of powerful Ant
tasks ranging from dependency resolution to dependency reporting and
publication.</li>

-Ivy is open source and released under a very permissive <a
href="license.html">license</a>.
-Ivy has a lot of powerful [[features]], the most popular and useful being its
flexibily, integration with ant, and its strong transitive dependencies
management engine.
-The transitive dependencies management is a feature which let you get
dependencies of your dependencies, transitively. In order to address this
problematic ivy needs to find metadata about your modules, usually in an <a
href="doc/ivyfile.html">ivy file</a>. To find these metadata and your
dependencies artifacts (usually jars), Ivy can be configured to use a lot of
different <a href="doc/configuration/resolvers.html">repositories</a>.

<h1>Overview</h1>
This documentation is decomposed in 3 main parts:
<ul>
<li>[[tutorial]]</li>
The tutorials is the best way to begin to play with ivy. You will easily and
quickly learn the basics of Ivy.
- <li><a href="doc/reference.html">Reference</a></li>
+ <li>[[reference]]</li>
The reference documentation gives you all the details of Ivy.
The introduction part is particularly useful: it defines some vocabulary,
explains main concepts such as dependency resolvers and patterns, and give an
overview on how ivy works internally.
It's also in the reference doc that you will find all you always dreamed to
know about ivy configuration, ivy files, and ivy use (especially with ant).
- <li><a href="doc/appendix.html">Appendix</a></li>
-The appendix section contains a bunch of Ivy related information which is not
part of Ivy reference doc.
+ <li>[[dev]]</li>
+The developers's doc is useful for users who would like to extend Ivy or build
it from source. It's also the documentation used by the Ivy team, so you will
also find information about how we make releases.
</ul>
-
-You will also find here interesting pages like [[bestpractices]], the [[faq]]
or the [[links]] pages.

+Welcome to Ivy reference documentation!
+
+If you don't know Ivy at all, give a glance at its [[features features]], the
[[faq]] and the [[tutorial tutorials]] before digging into this reference
documentation.
+
+<h1>Reference Overview</h1>
+This documentation is decomposed in several parts:
+<ul>
+<li>Introduction</li>
+<ul>
+<li>[[terminology]]</li>
+This part gives you the meaning of some words used all over ivy doc, such as
organisation, module, configurations, settings, ...
+<li>[[concept]]</li>
+This part introduces the main concepts used in Ivy: dependency resolvers,
variables, patterns, and also a good introduction to a central ivy concept:
module configurations.
+<li>[[principle]]</li>
+As the title suggest, here you will have some explanations on how does ivy
work internally, which can help to better understand and customize its use.
+<li>[[install]]</li>
+This part describe how to install Ivy
+</ul>
+<li>[[configuration]]</li>
+This part is dedicated to the specification of the settings file of Ivy
(usually called ivysettings.xml). It also gives the list of built-in dependency
resolvers available in ivy.
+<li>[[ivyfile]]</li>
+This part is the reference of the specification of the ivy files, the files in
which you describe your dependencies. If you have any question of what can be
done or not in an ivy file, you will have the answer here.
+<li>[[ant]]</li>
+This part describes how to use ivy from ant. It's in this section that all ant
tasks brought by ivy are specified.
+<li>[[standalone]]</li>
+Even though Ivy is most often used from ant, it can also be used from the
command line. This page describes how you can do it.

OK, you've seen how easy it is to make your first step with ivy? Go ahead with
the other tutorials, but before make sure you have properly <a
href="install.html">installed</a> ivy and downloaded the tutorials sources
(included in all ivy distributions, in the [[svn:src/example]] directory).
