Module Documentation
The main purpose of the module documentation is to describe what is relevant for the users of the module. Additionally, also internal design aspects can be documented here.
The central tool for the documentation is Sphinx, which makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful documentation. Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.
If you are not familiar with reStructuredText, you may read the introduction page on the Sphinx webpage first: reStructuredText Primer.
