Documentation for MusicBrainz Picard

This project was created with the intent of eventually developing a comprehensive user manual for MusicBrainz Picard, a full-featured, cross-platform music file tagging system using metadata from MusicBrainz.

This project is not intended to replace the documentation on the Picard website, but to augment it with additional detail and a structured approach.

This documentation project is open source and provided under CC0 1.0. To view a copy of this license, visit https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0.

The project currently produces the on-line documentation in ReadTheDocs format theme using Sphinx. Stand-alone PDF and ePub documents are also being produced. The latest build of the documentation produced by this initiative can be viewed on the web page.

Contributing to the Documentation

This documentation project only exists because of the volunteer effort that goes into its development.

Further high quality contributions are welcomed from all Picard users wanting to be part of the open source community that creates and maintains this valuable music tool. Even if you cannot write code, based on your experience of using Picard any help you can give to improve this documentation further will be most appreciated - and even if you cannot improve the existing help, if you can create or maintain translations into other languages, that would be of great benefit.

If you notice an error in the documentation or have additional or updated material to contribute, please raise an issue in the issue tracker. Pull Requests to address outstanding issues are also appreciated. Please see CONTRIBUTING.md for more information and additional ways to contribute.

Thanks.
