Documenting Python
|
|
######################
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Python language has a substantial body of documentation, much of it
|
|
contributed by various authors. The markup used for the Python documentation is
|
|
`reStructuredText`_, developed by the `docutils`_ project, amended by custom
|
|
directives and using a toolset named `Sphinx`_ to postprocess the HTML output.
|
|
|
|
This document describes the style guide for our documentation, the custom
|
|
reStructuredText markup introduced to support Python documentation and how it
|
|
should be used, as well as the Sphinx build system.

.. note::
|
|
|
|
If you're interested in contributing to Python's documentation, there's no
|
|
need to write reStructuredText if you're not so inclined; plain text
|
|
contributions are more than welcome as well. Send an e-mail to
|
|
docs@python.org or open an issue on the :ref:`tracker <reporting-bugs>`.
