# Documentation

We use [Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org) to generate Meshroom's documentation.

## Requirements

To install all the requirements for building the documentation, simply run: 
```bash
pip install sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme myst-parser
```

You also need to have [Graphviz](https://graphviz.org/) installed.

> Note: since Sphinx will import the entire `meshroom` package, all requirements for Meshroom must also be installed

## Build

To generate the documentation, go to the `docs` folder and run the Sphinx makefile: 
```bash
cd meshroom/docs
make html
```

To access the documentation, simply go to `meshroom/docs/build/html` and open `index.html` in a browser.
