Welcome to Neutron's developer documentation!
=============================================

Neutron is an OpenStack project to provide "network connectivity as a service"
between interface devices (e.g., vNICs) managed by other OpenStack services
(e.g., nova). It implements the `Neutron API`_.

.. _`Neutron API`: http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/

This document describes Neutron for contributors of the project, and assumes
that you are already familiar with Neutron from an `end-user perspective`_.

.. _`end-user perspective`: http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/index.html

This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source
tree.  Additional documentation on Neutron and other components of OpenStack
can be found on the `OpenStack wiki`_ and the `Neutron section of the wiki`.
The `Neutron Development wiki`_ is also a good resource for new contributors.
