CiviCRM Documentation

• User and Administrator Guide

• Administration Guide (supplement)

• Developer Documentation — Everything you need to know for customizing, extending and debugging CiviCRM.
• Community 'notepad' wiki — ARCHIVE of notes for collaborative planning, requirements, specifications, notes from sprints and anything else. Since 2017, CiviCRM has been moving to a working-groups team structure and using Gitlab on lab.civicrm.org to structure group-specific collaboration, as well as using Mattermost on chat.civicrm.org for discussions. Not sure where to start from? Ask on the chat! either in the "town-square" or in one of the group-specific channels. (more information on how CiviCRM uses Gitlab)
