-------------------------------------------------------------------------- $Id$ Turbine Top Level README -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to Turbine. For more information about Turbine, please look at the HTML documentation in the docs/ directory. Here is a description of what each of the top level directories contains. Please consult the documentation in each of the lower level directories for information that is specific to their contents. bin/ This is a temporary directory for building the project. conf/ This is where the sample configurations live. docs/ This is where the documentation and database schemas live. All of the files in this directory are mirrored onto the live website. lib/ This is where the additional libraries and .jar files reside. src/ This is where all of the source code to Turbine lives. In order to get started with Turbine, you must build it first. Turbine uses Maven for its build environment. You can find installation information about Maven online at http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven. Once Maven has been installed, just type 'maven'. The default behavior is to compile, run the unit tests, and build the jar. Some other useful goals: maven site:generate - generate the site documention -The Turbine Team
