Volity

Developer Documentation

This page collects the current documentation available for the Volity system.

Overviews and Quick Starts

Our wiki is the wellspring of documentation for all of Volity's protcols and projects. Some starting points:

Frivolity (Perl) Documentation

Those seeking documentation on the Frivolity Perl modules need look no further than the modules themselves; they contain embedded docs in POD format. Use the perldoc command-line program to read them.

The main module (Volity.pm/perldoc Volity) contains the index to all the other pieces of Frivolity documentation.

HTML documentation is available under Frivolity's CPAN entry. Start with this page.

Python Volity Documentation

The Volity Python modules also have embedded documentation, in Python's docstring format. Use the pydoc command-line program to read them.

You can also view this documentation as HTML pages.

SVG/ECMAScript Documentation

A tutorial on Creating a Volity SVG UI. This walks through the creation of a sample UI for Tic Tac Toe. (You can also look at a slightly different sample UI for Tic Tac Toe, which comes with the Frivolity distribution.)
