This directory contains an idiomatic C++ client library for the Cloud Document AI API, a service that uses machine learning on a scalable cloud-based platform to help your organization efficiently scan, analyze, and understand documents.
While this library is GA, please note that the Google Cloud C++ client libraries do not follow Semantic Versioning.
The quickstart/ directory contains a minimal environment to get started using this client library in a larger project. The following "Hello World" program is used in this quickstart, and should give you a taste of this library.
For detailed instructions on how to build and install this library, see the top-level README.
