The purpose of this document is to define simple documentation on getting started with Velocity. For information about the overall structure of Velocity, please refer to the Design Document . The composition of this document will be written from the perspective of what you should do in order to start a newly functional system.

The first thing that you should do is download and install Velocity. This step is documented in the INSTALL document, so it will not be covered here. If you would like to view the detailed API documentation run "build-velocity.sh|bat javadocs" from the "build" directory. This will create a full set of Velocity API docs in the "docs/apidocs" directory.
