About this document

This document contains user documentation about the JGUIraffe library. It covers all important features of the library and provides many usage examples.

In most cases the single chapters of this user's guide are self contained. We tried to arrange them in a meaningful order, but forward references could not always be avoided. The sections about builders (starting from the chapter Introducing builders) build upon each other, so they should be read in sequence best.

In addition to this guide JGUIraffe ships with a tutorial application. The associated documentation is a good extension of the documentation provided here. Especially the Quick start sub section is a good starting point for the impatient readers. It describes the minimum artifacts required to get a JGUIraffe application up and running.
