Launchpad developer documentation¶
Welcome to the Launchpad developer documentation. This documentation is for people who want to hack on Launchpad.
Launchpad is an open source suite of tools that help people and teams to work together on software projects. Unlike many open source projects, Launchpad isn’t something you install and run yourself (although you are welcome to do so), instead, contributors help make Launchpad better.
If you want help using Launchpad, then please visit our user documentation.
If you’d like to contribute to Launchpad, this documentation is for you. Alternatively, have a poke around in the code.
