Whether you like to fix a tiny spelling mistake or rewrite an entire chapter, your help with the Blender manual is most welcome!

How It Works

You can modify the manual by editing local text files. These files are kept in sync with those online via a repository, based on this the server will update the online manual.

The manual is written in the reStructuredText (RST) markup language and can be edit using a plain text editor. For a local preview, you convert (build) the manual source files from RST into HTML web pages.
