= FreeBSD Documentation Project: Documentation Set
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD's documentation falls into three basic categories:
|
|
|
|
. https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi[*The manual pages*]
|
|
+
|
|
The manual pages are part of the base system, but are also an important component of the documentation. Both the Documentation project and source committers update and maintain manual pages.
|
|
+
|
|
At present, the Japanese team has translated many of the manual pages. Other volunteers could pitch in to translate the manual pages to other languages as well.
|
|

|
|
+
|
|
The project has a large amount of documentation that is "book length", or becoming that way. These include the FreeBSD FAQ and the FreeBSD Handbook.
|
|
. link:../../docs/books#ARTICLES[*The Articles*]
|
|
+
|
|
FreeBSD has a wealth of information available in shorter, article form -- similar to the tutorials or HOWTO documentation of other projects.
