Welcome to Kivy's documentation. Kivy is an open source software library for the rapid development of applications equipped with novel user interfaces, such as multi-touch apps. We recommend that you get started with Getting Started. Then head over to the Programming Guide. We also have Create an application if you are impatient. You are probably wondering why you should be interested in using Kivy. There is a document outlining our Philosophy that we encourage you to read, and a detailed Architectural Overview. If you want to contribute to Kivy, make sure to read Contributing. If your concern isn't addressed in the documentation, feel free to Contact Us.
