Overview
========
.. warning::
If you are using a released version of LLVM, see `the download page
<http://llvm.org/releases/>`_ to find your documentation.
The LLVM compiler infrastructure supports a wide range of projects, from
industrial strength compilers to specialized JIT applications to small
research projects.
Similarly, documentation is broken down into several high-level groupings
targetted at different audiences:
* **Design & Overview**
Several introductory papers and presentations are available at
:ref:`design_and_overview`.
* **Publications**
The list of `publications <http://llvm.org/pubs>`_ based on LLVM.
* **User Guides**
Those new to the LLVM system should first vist the :ref:`userguides`.
NOTE: If you are a user who is only interested in using LLVM-based
compilers, you should look into `Clang <http://clang.llvm.org>`_ or
`DragonEgg <http://dragonegg.llvm.org>`_ instead. The documentation here is
intended for users who have a need to work with the intermediate LLVM
representation.
* **API Clients**
Developers of applications which use LLVM as a library should visit the
:ref:`programming`.
* **Subsystems**
API clients and LLVM developers may be interested in the
:ref:`subsystems` documentation.
* **Development Process**
Additional documentation on the LLVM project can be found at
:ref:`development_process`.
* **Mailing Lists**
For more information, consider consulting the LLVM :ref:`mailing_lists`.
